WANTED: Di-Acro "Ejectomatic" for Rod Parter #2

[Ede]

I know this is a long shot, I just picked up a #2 Di-Acro rod parter. Does anyone have an ejectomatic assembly laying around, p/n 8080141-070? Interested in purchasing an orphaned part before I go to Di-Acro

• Ejectomatic gauge – allows gauging, parting, and ejecting to be performed in a single working cycle; especially valuable when cutting lengths between 2” and 6”

Not to put too fine a point on it, but that looks like about a 45 minute job to make, with a drill press and hacksaw,, even counting in making the spring loaded finger for an end stop.

You can make the ejectomatic, the greatest metalworking invention of all time in 45 minutes? In all seriousness, I might just do that if I'm unable to source one.

Look at the video, that part is definitely calling on the black arts

I'm thinking you have an altogether greater opinion of the"ejectomatic" than I do.

Ede, I'm glad to see this topic come up. I'd like to know how that spring works. I was fortunate to pick up a No. 2 this year myself.
