I buy replacementn parts for things on eBay...often people sell old machines for parts (see this link):

The other place is flea markets, tag sales and estate sales often have the old machines dirt cheap and you can pick them up and cannablize them for parts.

If you are super handy, you can take the entire thing apart, pull off what you need and then sell the deconstructed parts on eBay and make your money back!

I have learned over the years many things are worth more as parts than the whole and this is a great way to make money off of broken items!!

Just my 2 cents worth for your typing pleasure!! Hope you can find what you need quickly!! I love the sound of a typewriter! I have one of my phone ring tones set to that very sound....click....click...click...ding!
