I think you might mean 'bob'. Anyway, I'll go pull it tomorrow. It's rusted to the pin, hopefully It will come loose. MAybe see if I can get a picture of it with some measurements after it's off. I will see what else I might have but it looks like 'slim pickings'.

Sorry, I see a red line at the bottom of your post that says call Dan Benjamin for parts. I was confused why windybob and Dan at the bottom????
Thanks for your response and efforts.

Yes, I've done business with Dan for years, I am not in the parts business, he is. Once in a while I have a few extras of certain items, and am able to let some go.

Question.....Does anyone have a parts list for the ealier model Stover (self oiling) named model "W"? it was out before the model S, and M both. I might have one, not sure. Parts on the mill have an 8 in them, and it also has an internal brake. Thanks.

Thanks. Numbers still don't match. I am positive this is a Stover. I must be losing my mind. LOL
I just took pictures. Let me get them posted in a bit.
Oh maybe this should go into the library also. I looked in there yesterday, did'nt see one like this.

OK here is what I came up with picture-wise. I needed to remove the stub tower to get these parts off. And....the brake looks home-made. Can't find a number on it, but well made. I believe if it was factory, it would be cast instead of welded steel.

This doesn’t look like anything we have on our windmill. Probably a different model.
Thanks for your efforts.
Do you work at the Ok Baptist children’s homes?
We work a couple times or more at Baptist camps here in Missouri.
