[Syrupmakers] mill rebuild

[Tracy Baudoin (tbaudoin)]

Understood David,
Unfortunately, I used Babbitt for Laurel Valley's mill.  The mill I personally use had the bushings replaced, but I didn't make them.  Dick Gibbens made my brass replacement bushings when he was still around.

I do have a mill and lathe, but don't feel that I'm up for the task just yet, as brass blanks can be extremely expensive.  I can try forwarding your information to an antique engine club out of Donaldsonville, LA that does this kind of work.  What model/size mill is it?

I am looking for someone that could rebuild it, new brass bushings, to replace the babbitt ones,
