Hi guys. My lathe did not come with the 1/2" wrench. It came with an ace 5/16? I think and a 11/16 or 5/8 Williams one..If some one has a spare or collects them and has a duplicate I would be interested. Or if you can point me in the direction to acquire one.

Thanks
Dave
 
I'm guessing like this one?

Amazing what you find when looking for something else.

I might have a spare. Let me see what I have. If I have one, I'll let you know later today. But I won't be able to ship it to you till after Thanksgiving.

If I have one, it's yours for the cost of shipping.
 
Hi Craig the wrench for the shaper is 3/8.. I do have that one for the lathe as well. I have 3/8 and 3/4. For the lathe.
 
This is the wrenches I have for the lathe. Craig gave another 3/8 one with the shaper. I am looking for a 1/2 inch for the lathe to have a set.

OK, It just so happens that I do have one extra 1/2" square lathe wrench. As I said before, I don't have time to look after it now. But make yourself a note to remind me about it a week after Thanksgiving if you don't find one between now and then.

Thanks Susquatch will do.
 
Hi Susquatch, no still looking at this time. There are some eBay, Etsy but they are way to pricy for me. If you still want to part with yours pm me.
