I need a small part for my magna dado.

one of mine is stripped and will not function.

Just a suggestion, but Yuba-better be looking at a new wobbler or a full scale dado at this point in time.

I am sure you are right, just hoping someone would have some spare parts...
Agreed

I would be amazed if you can find that kind of part. I'm thinking it would be cheaper to replace the whole wobble dado. They usually aren't too expensive on ebay, and even the brand new ones aren't too bad (unless you want really smooth, crisp bottoms in your dados). The other option I see would be to make your own part, depending on what the pinion is. Is it just a pin that holds the wobble together? Are you missing both of them? My wobble isn't working too well so I might be able to take pictures of it if it would come apart easily.
Just thinking out loud.

IIRC it is a cast pinion gear with a short integral pin shaft out both ends. It rides in a depession between the two wedge halves and causes them to move simultaneously. It also has a square socket for the 'adjusting tool'.
I think a salvaged part from a discarded blade will be your only source.
Ya might get lucky here on this forum.
Good luck!
