Any idea what the foot control sold for?

Just looked, I have the catalog for the lathe from 1994. Lol
Price for the steady rest is there but no price listed for the foot pedal. It went with the lathe.

I thought Muellers had Porpers inventory of parts. Has anyone had any luck with them? As a side note I like how the steady rest works on the Porper so I adapted it to one of my metal lathes. I reverse engineered the one I had and created a cad model of the various parts. I was going to do a batch of parts on the cnc. Does anyone know if there would be any patent right infringements to selling parts for these machines?

So far Meullers web site only list the 3 centers. Parts inventory from Joe's shop to there's hasn't been released to my knowledge but I'm not one of thier customers so I don't know.
As far as Joe Porper. I don't know if he ever tried to put patent on anything. He kept things to himself pretty much with the exception of selling his products. Certain things were never released. Wiring schematic for one. He wanted to control it as much as he could so the machine didn't get copied.

I would be happy buying parts for these machines when needed but if they are no longer supported then the alternative is to make them. So if I am going to set up to make certain parts then may as well make a batch. I would keep a few parts for myself and then sell the rest to pay for the time I have invested. I have two model B's one is the real early model with no carriage and one later model.

A price was never stated, so, If Michael would like to sell, let me know what you would like for it,

Muellers, used to have the foot controller on the parts list and I think the price was, $70.00 for the foot controller. I never saw the steady rest for the 1 piece bar cues, listed on muellers price list.



thanks
