I believe I recall reading that restorers have certain parts newly cast. Well, I have a cracked chain cog on my ancient IHC corn planter (drive axle cog) and I haven't got a clue where to find one. I will try brazing first, but would like to replace it. I honked down on the adjusting nut too hard (like a retard) and cracked it. Anybody know where I might find a replacement or where to have a new one made?

There is a place in Toccoa Georgia that advertises that they can cast any part at a reasonable price. I have lost their name and contact info, but i"m sure someone here knows it and will post it. I have a few parts I need to get recast as well. Good luck, Kevin

The Cattail Foundry at 167 Cattail Road in Gordonville, PA 17529 is able to make nearly anything you might need, They make gray iron and aluninum castings at quite reasonable prices. They do not have a phone but you may write them at the address given. I have had parts made there quite reasonably and have directed others to them. Give them a try

I would suspect that they may be Amish ? Ohio and PA have lots of them.

Thanks very much for the information. I'll write these folks and see what they say. Somebody may have an original laying around but I'm not holding my breath!
