Members penguineer Posted March 16, 2016 Members Report Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Hi All, Wondering if anyone knows if parts for a Nippy NP-1(?) bell knife skiver are available in Australia anywhere? I have a mostly complete unit rescued from the tip as a TAFE college shut down. The skiver is missing a small drive shaft that turns the stone inside the bell knife. It's a shame not to be able to use it just because of one little part....... Last I looked the Nippy site in Japan was pretty hard to navigate or understand, hence asking for someone that speaks Aussie(or even tolerable english) and hopefully can tell their billabongs and bunyips apart. Thanks! Edited March 16, 2016 by penguineer Quote
Members Darren Brosowski Posted March 16, 2016 Members Report Posted March 16, 2016 The Nippy is one of many copies of the Fortuna so a Chinese part will fit. Nobody here in Australia will have one in stock. email me on darren@ablesewing.com.au and I will get a price for you as I need to get some parts from a supplier in Taiwan. Quote
