I just get them on Amazon, good quality. Not the ones for slingshots

Thanks guys

I finished the lettering on the Eclipse, I hope I got it kind of right. There are so many different versions of the lettering out there, it's hard to know what is right.

Dan, the hub is hollow. The holes were probably there to get the sand out from the core when casting it. The bell hub Toronto also had one hole and the oil bath Toronto had three large oval holes.

The fellow that had the hub, gave it to me yesterday. It is definitely the hub mentioned in the price list. It has a part number of ENA 61, the regular hub has ENA 59 and Toronto spokes fit. It's the first one I have seen, so now I will have to put one like that together.

Happy Birthday!

I fixed up this Goold Shapley & Muir post grinder/foot gear. It needed new babbitt bearings and had some damage on the cover but pretty neat I think. I know this is a long shot but would anyone have the parts on the vertical shaft? See last pic, it's missing all that. Thanks, Peter 1.jpg 2.jpg 3...

No companies that I know of here where the hub looks like that. I do have a theory on what it could be but won't know until I have it here. The rear of the hub looks like a GS&M Selfoiling and it looks like Toronto spokes might bolt onto there, so it could be one of those cross over hubs like me...

Yes that looks similar, thanks for posting.

Hi Joe, that's good that you got the hub cleaned out. Never seen a date stamped on the end of the shaft but there is a number stamped on the hub where the part number is. It's not the date but the numer of mills made I think.
