I'll post a new thread too, but seeing as thsi is one of two threads here that mention this part...thought I'd post up here as you guys on this conversation will get notifications...
I have a 29k3..that i suspect will become a boat anchor...but no harm in asking. any one have a scrap machine and will to sell me this carrier?
The shuttle carrier plate is broken, this is probably my fault, but the machine was 'broken' anyway, the drive being so worn and the housing was letting the shuttle carrier move and bump in to the needle. Had to drill out the grub screw. A couple of weeks of heating, soaking / small impact driver and it was not going to move. Think I put weight on the edge of the carrier as I drove it out of the gear
So here is my carrier, I do not think silver soldering will save this
I see plenty of parts from China..but only the bigger ones for the newer machines, or 11 mm diameter gears where this takes the 3 tooth 16 mm gear.
Did any one ever gets parts made for theseolder ones?
