Rod Lathe Foot pedal

Guys I have a Renzetti lathe permanently mounted on a table. The problem is I constantly have to move my foot pedal as I work my way down the rod. Does anyone have a good picture layout or drawn out plan for a table length foot switch? I noticed a picture Tom posted in his gallery showing his lathe. I can’t make it out but I believe he has a table length foot pedal. I want something nice so I don’t want to try to piece mill something together.

RodMaker, Volume 10 #5 has the plans, illustrations, parts, and other details for making a full length foot control for any lathe. It was part of the series we did on the Mobile Rod Building Station.
