I was machining a part tonight when my Z-Axis froze up. After getting the machine broken down into a pile of parts... I found the problem to be a nylon gear in the Z-Axis gearbox.
I have a 1978 vintage Wells-Index Model 850 (I think) and I need to find a replacement gear. The gear is 1/2 inch thick, 56 teeth, and 3.64 inches in diameter. Any ideas who would have a replacement part?
Also... does anyone have a manual that they could scan the parts list for me? I'd really find that helpful!
Thanks,
Jerry
