Fellow trolls, do you know of anyone who would re-built or sell Rek-O-Kut capstans and rubber? My lathe rumbles too much at 33 rpm.

Thanks.

Check with Terry's Rubber Rollers on your idler. What's wrong with the capstan? Bent? Gouged?

Well - I can't be sure if it needs to be replaced. But it's always a good idea to replace it after .. well 50 years or so.
