If anyone can help, please correspond directly.

FWIW: I'm going to be Off-List for the next month or so, but will be 
checking my email every few days.

Dear Jim at OLDENGINE.ORG,

I got your name from JIm at TBBS.

I am associated with ski area in CT that is still using an old compressor.

We need some help locating a part and thought you might assist.

The machine is a 1925 Worthington Laidlaw, Two stage, Double acting 
Reciprocating air compressor.

27x 16 1/2 x18  s/n L26578

The crankshaft counterweight on the Low pressure side needs to be replaced.

We would appreciated any help in finding a replacement part either new or 
used.

Thank you.
