brown and sharpe 510 surface grinder roller source?
Hi,
Just picked up a Browne and Sharpe 510 surface grinder... I got it for a good price so took the risk that I couldn't really inspect it thoroughly other than to run the spindle and tell it was quiet.
Well, the rollers aren't in good shape... the front flat way is missing a pair, the rear had the rollers turned the wrong direction and the roller cage missing (helpfully with a dowel separating the rollers).
So... the rear rollers are shot, with flats worn on them. I called Bourn and Koch, they said it would be about $1100 for the rollers + v-cage.
Anyone have a good source for parts other than B&K? I know these are precision ground and hardened, so I wouldn't expect them to be cheap.
Thanks,
Phil
