I'm doing up a garage find 1210, he's as stony broke as they come. I got a great new tonearm off Jason (thanks mate), I've supplied him with a cartridge, new headshell and cartridge tags. Plonked him a new plug on and made him a platter mat. The 1210 is turning and making music (currently listening to Kiss) but the bearing is shot. The main spindle is detachable from the bearing shaft :eek:. I was hoping I could tap into the goodwill of AOSer's and restore another 1210 to vinyl spinning duties.

So you just need the c- or e-clip or is something else wrong with it?

Yes I have one, and in good condition too, and I would be happy if it went to a good home. Trouble is: I think the postage from the antipodes would cost more than a brand new bearing.
