tony, thanks for the info! alan
just called norma to order some parts. so the drill is that you give her a call and get the prices. then she will give you a total and you have to send a check. once the check clears, they will send the parts. the mailing address is ......
Valley Manufacturing
11915 Wicks Street
Sun Valley, CA 91352

Heard that Norma no longer works at Newell.
yeah, things look bad, but it's hard to know what is rumor and what is fact. i just hope they survive in some way.
My brother lives in Santa Clarita and we drove out to Valley Manufacturing this past Monday 11/14/2011. We arrived at 2:30 pm and the parking lot and office building was closed. :-\
Bankers hours ???
i was talking to one of the okuma guys and told them that they should buy out newell. half joking, half not.
So as of now Newell is no more? I was thinking about buy a couple used newels and putting Tiburon frames on them, but I don't want to buy a real with no parts available...
not sure what to say. everyone talks about newell coming back, but is probably just wishful thinking. :-\
I just got around to doing some work on the 2 Newells that I have, only to find out that I might be needing some parts. The old bearings don't seem to want to come out!
I have the same problem. Might have to drill those babies out...break the inners first though...what to do, what to do...
Its 1.7 miles away from me ;D i might go and check them out this week.
