Nice work Bob. Two questions:
1. Where did you buy the degree wheel?
2. What are you drilling on the cross slide handle? I can't tell from the pic.

The cross slide handle has a 1/8" keeper drilled to keep the handle from spinning on the threads. I shortened the shaft for a PM member who couldn't do it because his lathe was missing the shaft.
The degree wheel is from http://www.mcmaster.com http://www.mcmaster.com/#protractor-dials/=gulle8 They may not ship overseas but i can ship one if you like. I will post the pics on how i made mine...Bob
