I am not having a lot of success finding a source for new dies for
my 'ancient' "ACME THREADING MACHINE"

This was once operated from a line shaft, but now is driven through
an old truck transmission and electric motor.

We are sometimes required to make small quantities of anchor bolts
and since the volume of work is not enough to warrant a new machine,
we are trying to get some new die chaser sets to replace worn out dies.

If anyone knows of a company who is currently manufacturing these chaser
die sets, I would like to hear from you.

The pictures are:
