Free Cam Lock Conversion for Cross Slide plans - When the Clamping Mechanism of my Cross Slide [Banjo] started to show signs of wear and tare I looked into the possibility of changing to a Cam Lock method of clamping the Cross Slide in position as this appeared to be a better solution to the more traditional Center Screw and Lever found on most Commercial Type Lathes. The principle of the Cam Lock is a very simple concept and the design I detail here should be adaptable for most Lathes with a Twin Bed Bar [Ways] arrangement.
