[GreenKeys] Kleinschmidt - Now It Begin

Yesterday, I received the Kleinschmidt equipment John, K4OZY, that he had made available.  The equipment consists of a  TT-482/UGC (KSR) and a TT-107B/FG (reperf).  The former looks like an AN/FGC-20 to me.  Both units seem to be complete, but have been sitting idle for some time.  
My plan to recondition both as time permits.  I'll be starting on the printer.  My first need is for set of gears.  The fiber driven gear on the main shaft is striped.  It is labeled as a 600 OPM gear.  I would like to replace this in order to be able to hand turn through the mechanical sequences.  Or the best case would be to pick up as set of 60 WPM gears (worm and driven gears). Also, the clutch felts will need replacing at some point.  That's enough for starters. If anyone knows of a source or can supply these, please contact me.
I'll be taking some photos and perhaps some videos of the process.  However, I doubt that it will be a quick turn around as this will be a fill in project among all the other duties I must fulfill in being retired.  I have not worked on a Kleinschmidt in about 38 years and I'm looking forward to it. 
Thanks.
