Need machinist's help in DFW area
One of my hobbies is restoring old (60s-70s) garden tractors. Some
came with electric power lifts for implements. The weak link in those is the motor gear; a 32 pitch, 16 tooth spur gear with about a 5/8" face. Bore is 5'16". I have a 3" piece of carbon steel gear stock I need parted and bored or bored and parted, whichever, to get as many gears as possible. https://sdp-si.com/eStore/ part# A 1C29-N32016 Low buck budget so I would like to beg, swap or trade for steak dinner, liquid refreshment or what-are-you-looking-for. Can you help or point me to someone who can? AAsberryatAOL.com --Andy Asberry recommends NewsGuy-- |

Doesn't sound too oddball that they might not stock it. |

If it's heat-treated, it may need to be sliced with a saw and then faced, trued and bored with carbide tooling. |

I'm in Keller, shop is in Azle. I have the machine tools but I'm light on expertise. I'd give it a go in exchange for getting my Loboy 154 running so I can sell it. - - Rex Burkheimer Fort Worth TX 817 834 5559 x3105 days 817 431 8051 home Andy Asberry wrote: One of my hobbies is restoring old (60s-70s) garden tractors.

In article , Andy Asberry says...

A saw kerf might well be thinner than a cutoff blade kerf, even given that you might want to clean both up after the fact.
