Seeking a small (but important) part for K-Line Retro Manufacturing operating accessory

Mike H MottlerOGR Forum Member SUPPORTING MEMBER

I have the new style K-Line Retro Manufacturing operating accessory (K-42403) with an operating forklift and an animated "sidewalk sweeper" figure which connects (somehow) to an actuating arm located underneath this accessory. I have the figure (Part #K-4011-04-01) , but no clip (or pin or link or something) for it, so I can't connect it to an elongated slot in the arm that provides motion along the sidewalk.

I could probably custom-make a clip - if I knew what it's supposed to look like. If you have this accessory, I hope you would take the time to draw the clip (or whatever it is) and send me the drawing by USPS. Or e-mail it to me so I could "copy cat" it and get this spiffy accessory working again.

With appreciation,

The Sweeper Man has two pins, one to keep it in the slot track and a metal pin with c washer to attach it the the arm.

See photos from ebay listing (not mine).

TOTRAINYARD:

Thanks for a prompt response. The photos you provided didn't show the underside of the sweeper figure. My sweeper figure has two small indents on its underside, so I suppose that's where the pins should go -- attached with glue. Since I'm not a skilled craftsman, I don't have a small parts drawer with a pin that could accept a "c" washer. I'll keep on thinking ...

Sorry, I do not have this set to photo myself.

A good hardware store should have the parts you need.

I would drill and tap for a metal machine screw for the arm and a nylon screw with the head cut off for the guide pin.

The head on the machine screw will replace need for the "c" washer.

good luck with your repair.
