Orteguil Rebate supports wanted

Post by Judders »

Hi, the rebate supports I have on my Orteguil don't quite match. The angle on the left hand one is not as sharp as the one on the right and as a result fails to give enough support on the rebate. It looks as though it has had some damage to it, see photo. Not sure if new ones from Orteguil, who are based at Disley in Cheshire would fit this very old machine. Probably will be difficult to replace. Any suggestions!

Further to this I am attaching two more photos which show the difference between the left and right rebate supports. Standing together shoulder to shoulder they shows the left one has been blunted for some reason, and there is as a consequence a gap at the point where they should be supporting the rebate, hence the damage incurred to the left side of the chopped rebate. I think this is the cause of the damage. Would it be possible to get this repaired I wonder? A section would need cutting away and a new piece welded in with the correct angle. Anyone think that feasible, or know an engineer who could make a good job of it?
