2 forum posts	Hi, I am looking for supplier of new old stock Bantam(Mk1)/Round head student headstock gears. I paid a large amount for one gear which was made by a UK company that makes spares for Colchesters and its finish was appalling so if possible I am looking for spares made by the original manufacturer Regards Eric

RDG do stuff a bit to a price, but I've been happy with all of the stuff i've bought for the price paid.... They will definitely talk to you if you ring them

Another option phone a few machine tool dealers, they might know of someone breaking machines for spares, before anyone points it out I realise you want new old stock but sometimes we have to take what we can get with these old machines.
