A professional machinist friend of mine rebuilt a Sanford and he had a heck
of a time finding new spindle bearings.It seems they used "magneto" bearings
which haven"t been manufactured since the 30's and Sanford wanted over $300
for a pair of replacement bearings, but he finally found a bearing house
that had a substitute.


Their manual said that the only source these days was from a
Japanese firm.

Enjoy,
