Hello

Have been unable to find a cross slide for my IME lathe , has anyone ever had success in adapting any other cross slide to fit if so what make

thanks

Looking at photos, the tool posts appear to use a separate saddle with a flat top?

You may be able to use a tool post saddle to mount a compound slide from a different make of lathe? The small Boley compound slide I have just has a T slot underneath and fits over a separate saddle.
