Film tulip plastic roller

[jfujita]

Hi, I have an Abrahamsson winder and I'm wondering where I can purchase a spare of the plastic roller (typically attached to the baseplate) that spaces the film on the film take-up tulip.

The winder works --as designed-- just fine without the plastic roller, but I'd just like to fit it with one. Any ideas?


Thanks,
-Justin

Have you tried mailing Tom?

He does show up here ever so often but dropping him a mail shouldn't hurt.

You can just remove the one that is on the regular base-plate and put it on the winder. Leica is reluctant to sell them to me and as i dont use them myself it is not worth the effort to source them as parts (and also VERY expensive).
