    Pinion screw & plate for Remington Noiseless Portable

    Hey All, I am fixing up an old Remington Noiseless Portable (mid 30-s model, serial #N88173), and I accidentally overtightened the main spring drum, stripping the plate it mounts to. So I am looking for a new plate (not sure of the name of this part), as well as the screw that attaches the Spring Drum , (Equalizer Pinion Screw?) I have some pictures here that show what I need:[url=https://docs.google.com/a/imageandtype.com/file/d/0BxZ5X5VXFrFBbnB0eF9GcVBKUEU/edit?usp=drivesdk]https://docs.google.com/a/imageandtype.com/file/d/0BxZ5X5VXFrFBbnB0eF9GcVBKUEU/edit?usp=drivesdk

    And here is the whole thing:[/url]

    Please let me know if you have any insight into where I might find these parts. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Re: Pinion screw & plate for Remington Noiseless Portable

    My advice would be to buy a tap and die for the size of that screw and repair it. If the thread is that badly damaged a machine shop should be able to put a HeliCoil insert into that plate and give you threads that are stronger than the original ones were.
