I'm trying to put an Edison Home A back together again. Someone before me decided they could "fix" it and took it apart. I have it back together again and running just missing the mandrel collar and set screws. It is the late model Home A with the plain gold banner decal. Also missing the bottom pully set screw and the set screw that holds reproducer carriage rod? at the gate end. If someone can help me out, please let me know. Thanks, Jan

I see no one has answered you so I will try.
If your talking about the collar that holds the feed screw next to the mandrel bearing, you can get one from Sitko. He told me he doesn't have many left last time I needed one and no one is making them. I got 3 to put up.
