I have a vintage KO Lee grinder (Pic 1) and I'm looking for a part for it or ideas of what to do if I can't find the part.
The grinder is as follows: Model No. B604, Serial No. 3292 (Pic 2).
The third pic shows the assemply for the hand feed that moves the entire table top back and forth, i.e., toward the user and away from the user (It's the feed handle on the left in Pic 1).
Pic 4 shows the part I need from this assembly. It is the threaded insert that the hande-screw threads into.
You can see in Pic 5 how mine has broken.
The remaining pics are additional refrence pics.
I'm guessing that this is a shot in the dark, but do anyone have an idea for finding a replacement for the part I'm looking for?
Or does anyone have any alternative suggestions for repairing this?
I am not a machinist but a hobby knifemaker.
Thank you for your time.
