Macson Flatbed Travelling Steady
Yes, I know this is a tall order but just in case someone has a flatbed Macson travelling steady gathering rust & dust under a bench and is willing to part with it.
My Macson is a 1946 17" Flatbed machine - the travelling steadies for these are a bit different by being fitted to the cross slide dovetails.
I recently came across this photo and it is the first time I had seen one in relatively good detail to know what to look for.

On my 17" machine the distance from the bottom of the steady to the centre of the horizontal adjusting pin would be 6.75".
