Moving the shop around, I managed to snap off the handle of the fence lock cam on my PM66.  The fence manual I found online says it's part  3076232
I guess I need to find my manual to doublecheck.  It's not too expensive if that's the right number https://www.ereplacementparts.com/lock-c...50846.html

I'm going to try to braze mine first.

Didn't know they had comments there.  "The piece broke in half"  -- yeah, that's what happened to mine, just broke in half

I confess, I'm confused, down below what?

way, way down at the bottom of my link, there are a couple of comments.

I'm just not sure if they ever made more than one of these cam locks.  Sure looks like the one in the picture though

I decided to fix it by bolting the handle back to the cam via a piece of all thread.  If the fix doesn't work, I'm going to make another one.  The cam is nearly round with an eccentric hole, so I can make it on the lathe.  I need to put the 4 jaw on there anyway, got a project that's too big for the 6 jaw.

I fixed it, but it doesn't seem the same, so I ordered another one.  They also have the part I need to fix my ROS, so it was nice to combine shipping.
