Good day Gents,
I have a Toyo 210 Lathe and want to replace the cross slide handwheel and dial. Can anyone help with where I can get a replacement handwheel? Would be grateful for your help. Thanks. Brian

you have a lathe, you could always turn up a new one of your own.
according to lathes.co.uk, they are also badged up as Proxxon, Manix and Saki, and were also sold under the record brand - http://www.lathes.co.uk/toyo/
so there are a few other brands you can put in a search on google for spare parts
chronos do a generic handwheel set that might be able to be made to work -https://www.chronos.ltd.uk/product/mini-lathe-metal-handwheel-and-knob-accessory-set-upgrade/

Thank you Grendel. I did think about turning up a new part myself and seem to remember an article on the subject once. I'll follow up on the leads that you have given. Thanks.

Good day Grendel. I sourced a handwheel for the Proxxon FD150 lathe. Needs a bit of modification but looks as though it should work. Much easier to read the dial. Thanks. Brian
