Hercus Model A

hello, i am the proud new owner of a hercus 9' model A, long bed lathe. I am really enjoying this new lathe.
Two questions though, is there an off the shelf taper attachment available for this lathe? Or do you have to make your own?

And secondly, anyone know where i can get a new crossfeed nut? The current one has a fair bit of play in it and slides around a bit when turning something that is off centre slightly.

Thanks in Advance,
Shane.
