Lathe switch

Anybody know Carling's stock number for the switch on a Hightower Deluxe (9 terminal). Haven't had a chance to contact Chris.
Thanks in advance!!

I'm sure Chris can set you up with the switch, I've searched them before, but seems like the numbers had changed, and I ended up buying It from Him rather then trying to match another one up. He was closer to My location anyhow, and shipping was fast as usual.

One piece of advice: You may want to invest in a rubber toggle boot to go on the new switch. That should help keep the dust and chips from getting inside of the switch. I believe that contributed to My first to switch going out.

Definitely get the boot. Haven't had a problem since I put one on.

Great idea. The first one lasted for 7 years and when I was setting up for a tourney, the switch decided to retire. Gonna get a couple:thumbup:
