Does anybody know of a source for the thick felt that is used way-wipers on
the carriage as well as the felt used as wicks on shafts? I hate to even
call SBL for a price at this point.
I'm in the process of de-gunking and repairing my SB and I'm missing a
couple of the way-wipers. One screw was broken off, but fortunately there
was enough of a nib sticking out I was able to use a small nail-set and a
small hammer to carefully unscrew the broken screw. I'm glad I didn't have
to drill and tap!
Thanks,
