Can anybody help me locate a hub nut to keep my reel from falling off the hub on my Fostex reel to reel? One of two are missing. Anybody here have one they could sell?!?! PLEASE!?!?
Thanks.
 
That is probably going to be a tuff one unless you find someone that is parting out a fostex. The only thing I can think of is there is a good chance its some kind of standard metric size or maybe even usa thread. I would take the good one to a hardware store and see if you can find a nut and a washer to use and just put it on the take up side and leave it there. Maybe cut a piece of thin rubber to put between the washer and reel. It may not look pretty but it might work.
Good luck with your quest.
 
Good suggestion Herm, but I really want to find one of these things. BTW, is there an official name for this part? Hub nut maybe? Doesn't anyone out there have one to spare? Who has mine?
