Kwik Way Model C valve refacer (circa 1928-1943)

[fordcragar]

I picked up a Kwik Way machine and I'm trying to get it up and running. I have ball bearings for the chuck and a new round leather belt to drive the valve chuck.

I'm looking for some accessories, if someone has one of these that they are parting out. Even if you don't want to get rid of any pieces, maybe I could get some good pictures and dimensions.

If you have any experience on rebuilding one of these, I would be interested in your experiences too.

I talked to Kwik Way and they told me the model number, based on the machine number, but the pictures in the model C manual look different than my machine.

I just got what appears to be a model C, and need to find a manual for it . Anyone have an electronic copy? I also need to replace the round leather belt, but suppose fusible round polymer is a better idea today. anyone make the switch?
Thanks

Hey all, it’s tough finding info on these. I would love a copy of a manual too. I bought one for 50$ and am stripping and painting it

I will be starting a build thread if anyone is interested

Was there ever a build thread started for this? I just picked on up and would love to see how to make it serviceable again.
