Cool R10 Headstock.

Good used headstock or possibly a pattern required for Aveling and Porter R10 roller. Required for a friend who has a large crack in his original casting. Is there anything about out there ? Many thanks in anticipation.

These guys can do some pretty impressive repairs on castings which could be another solution

You might also consider a call and some email photos to Metaloc at Coventry . I have found their attitude to be brilliant , and like Cast Iron Welding , they work to Lloyds' standards and give a guarantee . Another company , in the same geographical area as CAW , f**d up a Burrell cylinder , and then walked away from it .

Neil is the guy you want for cold metal repair, he was the guy that knew what he was doing at metalock.

Pm for his number, brilliant work. We’ve had cylinders tops cut out, steam flanges replaced with no leak or issues.
