My best guess would be Porper, make your own, or ask Rocket. You are talking about the small metal plate used to hold the tool post on, correct?

If you're talking about a square nut, try your local hardware store. That's where I get mine for my Hightower.

Measure your slot width and height and pic the size nut that you need.
