Parts for Greenie Restoration

Post by Soyknee »

I bought my first Shopsmith a couple weeks ago. Its a 1953 Greenie and am currently rebuilding the headstock. I am missing the collar on the end of the quill. Does anybody know where I could get one? I saw some rebuilt quills on Ebay but I'd prefer to just buy the collar. Thanks in advance

Check the Mother ship
If you mean the collar on the end of shaft, that keeps everything together.

Item 65? May have to contact Customer Service directly.

That’s the part. I saw on a different post that the single bearing quills have a different collar than the two bearing quills. I will call tomorrow and see what they have. Was hoping somebody would have a used one

All on eBay. I am sure at least one of them has one.
