The Framers Forum

Can anyone suggest where I might be able to purchase some Morso F spare parts? 1. moving bite adjustment arm, 2. black plastic long armed top for a fence adjuster 3. rebate support adjusters? I've just acquired a very old machine which I'm trying to coax back into life. I wonder if Morso Fs ever get broken for spares? They seem indestructible. Otherwise I'll have to resort to 'new' spares if I can locate those. I'll see how I get on with framing before committing to a less elderly machine - any help appreciated.

Hi TJR & welcome to the forum.

I have a pair of rebate supports from my Morso F that were replaced when I upgraded to the spring loaded version - any use ?.

Cheers

Pat

Welcome TJR.

These machines are very tough and the chances are that the bits you need will wear out long before it becomes a total write off. I saw one last week (not a Morso but very simiar) still in working order but without blades c1890.

There's one on E-Bay for 90p. No Bids. I suspect the seller has got the decimal point in the wrong place.

I am very appreciative of the three replies to the question I posted - thanks to you all. I am also generally impressed with the standard of information on the forum - there are clearly some big players as well as some one-person bands contributing which makes the generosity of the advice offered all the more striking.

Without going into detail (which would be embarassing), I have come to realise I made a false step and have been fortunate to be able to retreat from my acquisition. I will look for a more serviceable 2nd hand machine. I've learned a lot already!
