Hi Jon ...where do you live. ?Any chance there are some of your repair blocks to still be found? I inherited the perfomax 10-20 last year and had the treads go out on me this year. Looking online lead me to this thread. Thank You.
Jon
Great Falls,Hi Jon ...where do you live. ?
I'm about to start a new batch next week...when the first one is ready I'll let you know by PM... I do have a brand new replacement arm in stock but it would be far too expensive to ship to the US from UK due to its size and weight .... and the the repair kit does a better job.Great Falls,

I would love to purchase one of these from you. My latest arm stripped out in 4 months. Please let me know if one is still available and how to purchase it.Just finished a small batch of 5 maybe the last I'll make.View attachment 139727

Hi,I said in a previous thread that I wouldnt be making any more repair kits for this thickness sander 10-20 stripped thread problem, due to a new model that has come out with the problem solved.
But I am still getting a steady flow of PM's and eMails from owners of the older models asking about them... As this fix allows these old machines to carry on being used for many years to come, it's a cheaper option than buying the new model..So I have been persuaded into making up another batch..the materials will be arriving here some time next week and I will be putting the ukulele building on one side for a while...I was getting fed up of making sopranos anyway

Can you tell us what the thread size is?You would lose a bit of hight ... but the thread size is the problem, it is none standard.
Its supposed to be 9/16" UNF , way too sloppy a fit ....But I find it more like 18 TPI on a 14mm O/D spindle about 11 thou undersize...I had to machine the C/I threaded inserts as i couldn't find a Tap the correct size for a good fit.Can you tell us what the thread size is?
Sheesh, they could have made it easier, couldn't they? Might be easier for us mortals without your machine tools to use more standard threaded stock to make a new spindle. Or not. Are there any of your kits available?
