Dale Russell Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 G'Day World , as the title says i'm after some parts for a Buffalo 200 hand crank blower OZ is starved for smithin' gear & finding another blower here for parts is probably outta the question . What i'm after is the " fan " drive gear & shaft . Mine was left out side for many yrs before i got it & ants decided to use the blower for a home , causing the fan drive gear to rust away . I spent 2 hrs today attempting to reproduce the gear pattern out of epoxy ( wrapped with epoxy putty gear & cranked to get shape ) but in my excitment i couldn't wait for epoxy to dry & cranked blower only to have all my good work " mashed " between the upper gear .. :( Now to what i'm after . Hopefully some 1 has a " part's " blower that i could maybe buy from or if any 1 could make me a mould of the gear out of plaster / silicone so i can cast 1 out of bronze . Would pay for your time / shipping , really wanna get this blower back to work again & am hopin' some out in the wide world of smithin' can help me Dale Russell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
