[modeleng] Lead Screw

Morning All,

I am trying to source a cross slide lead screw for a Sheraton Conquest
lathe.

It has powered cross feed which means the lead screw has a gear on it which
is integral to the thread.  the only way I can see to fix the proplem of
wear is to obtain a length of  11mm diam x 2mm LH pitch screwed ? acme rod
and adapt it to the current lead screw.

Does anyone know of a genuine leadscrew lying around the place or where I
can get a lead screw.

I have Googled and it would appear that the    11 mm x 2 mm is not a std
size.

Cheers,
John
