Our Amish companies have been making replacement parts since 1950 for what many consider antique or junk farm machinery today. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, nearly every farm used the same equipment, creating ample demand for replacement parts. As most farmers modernized throughout the 1900s, the Amish continued to rely on horse-drawn equipment, as many still do today.
Since this equipment is no longer being manufactured and dealers no longer stock parts, it is challenging to keep this vintage farm machinery operational. Both Amish and vintage farm machinery implement enthusiasts scour junkyards, farms, and tree lines in search of these long-abandoned implements for restoration.
Cottage Craft Works.com travels deep into the back roads to find Amish companies that still make replacement parts to maintain and restore this old-time horse-drawn farm machinery.

A note on shipping costs: If you need only a small part, such as a bolt, nut, or shim, don't hesitate to get in touch with us to place your order; otherwise, the shipping calculator is set to assume you will order several parts from this section at the same time.
These replacement parts carry minimal markup for us, primarily when we sell a single item, such as a bolt and nut. To defray the time and cost of processing, credit card fees, and the labor to pack and transport to the post office, regardless of the shipping cost, we charge a minimum $14.50 base rate for shipping and handling, even for small shipments.

Just sending you a couple pictures of my No.9 mower. Thank you for providing the part for this restoration, it is great being able to buy parts for these vintage machines.
I took it down to the last bolt and did a lot of research on the colours, this mower should have been exactly what the colours would have been in 1941 when they were new according to my research.
Have a great day.
