eBay continues to be a great source for this project. My lathe was missing the threading chart. It doesn't effect the functionality at all, but it's just an annoyance. Well, tonight I picked one up on eBay for $12. I also got a set of half-nuts. They are used, but that does avoid me having to try to make some. I was surprised to get them for just over $40. I heard the last set to go on eBay went for more than $100. Guess there's not as many people buying right now. I've not had time to get back to the scraping project. It was getting close, but I take a small amount off at a time, so it goes pretty slow. I'll probably get the bottom done this weekend sometime, then move to the next part.
