Last I heard K&T was owned by Giddings and Lewis. They charged $125 for
photocopies of a couple of small manuals. I believe they have the part drawings and either have some parts or can reproduce them. I do not have a link but Google should find them. You may very well find out that the parts cost will exceed the value of the machine. You might luck out and find a machine being parted out by someone. Wish I could be of more help.

These guys are worth a try, but make sure you're sitting down when they tell
you the price. http://www.millingparts.com/ "tim" wrote in message ups.com... Broke a few gears on a K&T number 3 hoz. mill Anyone know where can I find some. Thanks in advance. Tim Kallam |

Most machine manufacturers used standard parts wherever they could, at least in my experience. Might be cheaper getting them from a gear distributor than from Kearney & Trecker. John Martin |

Tim Kallam Its going to be cheaper to : a. buy another machine b. have the gears made c. scrap out the machine Ive had to condem 3 KT #2s in the last year or so, because the lube pump gears swollowed its ass. I actually saved one, by installing an outboard pump that pulls lube oil out of a hole drilled in the casting, and recerculated. If you need a couple #2s, I can get em for you for less than scrap value (So. California) I replaced the other two machines with KT #2s, which Ive been able to buy for $350 and $400 respectivly Gunner |
