Here's the lower cushions that is needed.

I've had two belts made by a fellow in Niles, Illinois. The belts were for my blower/fly wheel. Try searching on line for John Knox. If you can't find him, email me and I'll dig up his contact info.

I did search for Bradley, but there was no info on were to get new rubber cushions casted except from Matts post. Stewarts cushions are for a up right. He's looking for them in the shop now and he'll call me back next week.

Looking for four rubber cushions for a 100 Lbs Bradley Helve Hammer. Does any one have a source?

I'm currently restoring a Bradley Cushioned Hammer at the Hesston Steam Museum out in LaPorte, Indiana. Our Bradley was donated to the museum back in 1974 from the South Shore Railroad shops (Michigan City). This Bradley 100 Lbs hammer had sat our museum as of Memorial Day weekend when it was relocated to our Blacksmith shop. It's all torn down waiting for Babbitt and beam. The beam was cut out on our saw mill that weekend.

What I need is some info on where to get new rubber cushions recasted. Our upper cushioned are intact, but the lower ones are shot. Has any one out here had any rubber cushions recasted? If so, can some one forward me what I need to know and were I can get new ones made.

I can be contacted either Facebook-"Blacksmith-Baltic Forge" or email: balticforge@aol.com.
Thanks so much for the good info on the web site here and you help.

Kindest Regards,
