Good point, Graham. Most of the time larger rewind job are done off the machine, but ALL of them need to be! Thanks for weighing in, I appreciate it.

Hi Bill, i just pm you. Just to add this gear has been tested to the max on a gs 1200, worked perfectly.These were not made by someone working out of his garage or on a hobby style machine, they were made by a company that make one off specialised gear's , syncro's for gearbox's and everything in between.With my 30 year's experience in a toolroom this guy was personally vetted by me,i will not accept nothing but right, you have my word on that my friend.Rgds paul.

My broken-gear problem was solved with original Elmo parts purchased from Leon Norris and some careful local tech work (definitely over my pay grade!). I'm still in possession of that machine but use it rather infrequently, but the repairs are good are still "holding."

Edwin's ability to create compatible all-new parts, and an endless supply of them, is very exciting indeed, especially since Leon's supplies are finite.
