0 BosKonay Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I'd say the stockists should be able to get parts from Paddy Murphy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 aramand Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 OK, I'll check it out with some of the shops. @BosKonay - just to confirm I didnt break the one I bought from you . It's the first 181 I bought 2nd hand before I knew what I was looking at and it annoys me now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BosKonay Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Cool Was hoping I'd packed it well :) Check with Seamus or Gareth I'd say, they'll give you a steer either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Warbonnet Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Any chance of SSM doing some brass handrail stanchions ala smokey valley in the US Westy? I have 9 141s and an expected half dozen 071s and god knows how many murphys 121s that need upgrading... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Weshty Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I will add to the list of other long finger stuff, once I have a bit of time, I'll throw them on a test etch and voila! Any photos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BabyGM Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 They were available from marks models at the Blackrock show in October maybe check from them or you could ask murphy models directly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Marks Models is the official spares supplier for Murphy Models. I ordered several sets and collected them at the Blackrock show but I don't think they were for sale there I think you had to pre order them with Mark.

0 aramand Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Ok, thanks - I'm in Cork so I'll check with Marks Models here and see if they can order some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have a gander online. I don't think I'm the only one who would like them either. Plan to carry out such surgery to my yank stuff too in due course. I just wish Smokey Valley checked their emails once in a while! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a replacement spindle for a Lima Class 20 in 1988, and again in 1997 - still waiting....... I'd rather wait for Weshty ta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
