Hi all,

I'm in the process of cleaning up a Millers Falls. All the parts are here, but the two bearing blocks on the vertical shaft are cracked. The bottom one is just cracked, the top one has a piece of sheet metal added across the crack and held in place by longer bolts drilled through the carriage in the former screw holes for the bearing block. So I'll need to replace both bearing blocks and some screws to get the machine functioning. I was wondering if anyone knows a modern source for the bearing blocks, since it seems to be a pretty simple part? Or if anyone has any original bearing blocks lying around?

Thanks for the help,
Bill

I'm checking with my partner in the tool business to see if we have any spare parts for a MF machine.
I'll let you know when I know.
