I recently got an old Craftsman Lathe....

[groucho]

....and it needs a couple parts. It's model #101-07383. This part drives the table(?). It's turned by the wheel and in turn moves the table by the gear I'd call the rack (of rack and pinion). My friend and machinist of over 30 yrs recently died and his wife wanted me to have this, so I'd like to get it fixed. What is this part called, so I can search for one? Thanks

There is one on Ebay right now. Are you the same Groucho from the HAMB? If so, there is a machinery repair place in Sun Valley off Penrose called Studwell. they may be able to track it down for you.

Same Groucho. I'll check out Studwell, thanks

It might be worth asking Clausing Industrial if they can help; the manufacturer of your lathe was Atlas & they have since become Clausing Industrial...

This might help too..?

Good luck; it's a very worthwhile project.

Be sitting down.
The gougers on Egay have jacked the price up on them.
It is a carriage traverse gear.

An excellent source of support and documentation for your lathe is here:

The model number should be on a plate on the right end of the lathe, below the ways.
should be something like 101.xxxxxx or 109.xxxxxx
