10" Model K looking in lot book - has the 50 NMTB spindle nose
I just got it, so bare with me, but it seems like it has a 1 to 1 ratio. Does that make sense?

5 to 1 using crank and 40 to 1 using built in gear train
May even be a manual in the Kearney Trecker section of Vintage Machinery

Know where I can get a manual? How many plates did it come with?

Manual - as noted - from Vintage Machinery
plates - the double sided one (?) that came with it new and four others - sounds like five. I'd imagine the manual will be helpful with exactly what plates

You have to flat love the K&T lot number system.

It was a pia to scan every page in that lot book. The reason I scanned it in four sections was to be able to email the files.... Later on, Keith Rucker had the vintage machinery site so I and others could upload info... I have been collecting K&T for many years now and am proud to be able to share with others and when I take my dirt nap, all of it won't go out to the trash... Cheers from hot Louisiana; Ramsay 1

As a side note, When searching for a foot stock, bear in mind that those units are offset from the centerline of the spindle.... The ten and twelve inch unit have the same offset, the 14 is more... You may find this manual useful: http://vintagemachinery.org/pubs/detail.aspx?id=6636

Its possible to make one with good DRO.
And some DROs will plot hole to hole dimensions / coordinates on a circle for you - step by step
Assume 7.000 bolt circle dia
Chordal dimension hole to hole is .4309 (.2155 off C/L)
Circular arc length is .4312
Additional math applied as needed
