Lathe controls

Whenever I have a few spare moments at work I make up bits and pieces for the lathe. Here are a few parts turned for the main carriage control wheel. Materials: 220 mm hydraulic cylinder a old braze tool and a piece of hydraulic shaft. I will mig world them together soon. I have a 200 mm by 600x20mm piece of plate I've had to purchase for part of the cross slide. I want very wide apart ways to support cutting big diameter flywheels.
