Hi all...

Congrats, Wayne, yr on top of yr game...The mystery part
is for sure i.d'd...

I am going to check my parts stash for this part, I'll get back
to the list in a day or so, as I have a lot of parts to go thru...

As mentioned, I have changed many of them over the years,
mostly breakage caused by binding in the rack, and typewheel rotational
gear. It is an area where a lot of crud can accumulate over time...The part
is hardened steel and
surprisingly brittle...It is a  very neccessary part of the
typewheel shaft cage assembly...If not replaced, one
or more of the vertical rods will break...

It is difficult to do on a first time basis...Replacing the
printing carriage with another one is also bad news...Tons
of re-adjustments...I used to always prefer to work with
the unit I had...

I'll get back re: the part...

Cheers!

Ken VE3-HMQ
