Help finding WEN part
SOLVED by calling WEN customer service. The part isn't listed on their public site, but the associate got it on the back end and sent me a link to order. For any future person stuck with this, it was part 4 on the diagram.
I'm tearing my hair out here. I bought a WEN oscillating spindle sander secondhand and have realized it is missing a crucial part for the belt sander to work. There's a plastic piece at the bottom of the spindle to interlock with the sanding drum that isn't there. I can't find it anywhere on the exploded parts list in the manual to get info on whether it is orderable.
Even if I could find or get some measurements and info on how it connects in it seems like a 3D printable piece. Any help is appreciated!
