Need a Center Trunnion: Powermatic 66 - RichmanNot - 02-13-2017
[attachment=1320]Very disappointing day. During a tear-down of my recently acquired Powermatic 66 Cabinet saw, I discovered a very damaged center trunnion. The part number is 3810018. Anyone knowing of where I can find a replacement, please let me know. I do not know the exact year of manufacture of the saw, but I have narrowed it down to the 1980’s prior to 1987.
The photos show the damaged trunnion. Seems someone did not take time to remove build-up caked on sawdust and the pressure broke the teeth? I was also told that the seller was pretty sure the saw was from a High School shop, which may explain part of the problem?
PLEASE help if possible. Thanks!

Second for Redmund Machinery – Scott can find just about any part you want for a 66. As you can imagine there isn’t a large pool of them out there so it isn’t the cheapest but they are a great source. I presume that he would also have a bunch of parts for other PM equipment but I never inquired about anything other than a 66.
Good site about powermatic serial #’s: http://wiki.vintagemachinery.org/PowermaticSerialNumbers.ashx Scroll down to the section titled: Tilting Arbor Saw (Tablesaw) It will tell you how to tell the year it was made.
