Sorry I was wrong about the shaft placements it has been a long time since I had my victor the bottom shaft is the one with the adjustable kick outs
here is a picture of one that looks exactly like the one I had except I had a trav-a-dial mounted on the thread index wheel. on the right you can see the several stops on the bottom shaft being stored

As you can see all the controls are a good fit for just about anyone.

Yesterday I found out Colchester did a similar attachment for tripping the power feed handle but I was told it was not very successful and not a very popular attachment. I will see if I can find some more information on the mechanism.

Hi Frank
Found this attachment, it is not the one I was shown in a brochure yesterday, This is a 6 position automatic longitudinal feed stop

On the sixth day, before my 50th my true love said to me “ what is this junk for anyway”

On the fifth day, before my 50th my true love said to me “ you will still have to screw cut the old fashion way”

Now, if kid-at-Christmas GIF will not suffice, you may have graduated to trampoline-slam-dunk-booty-scoot-guy levels of excitement:

On the fourth day, before my 50th my true love said to me “can we not spend all that money on a holiday, rather than a gearbox for your lathe?”

Of course you could, but what do you have after the holiday? Maybe a few pictures some souvenirs a brief experience and usually so tired and workout from the activities you need to rest up before resuming your normal routine. At least with a new tool of whatever size or function you can enjoy it for years to come.
