I am in need of a Wayne 50 center shelf bracket. Ron Scobie is out and dose not plan on doing any more in the near future if at all. I am not sure if other show case pumps have the same or close but would be interested if they are.

Matt--Looks like any easy fix to me. Any competent metal worker should be able to weld a threaded tube onto that arm.

It is made of brass so not so easy to weld. I am sure it can be brazed but if not careful the thing can be melted as if it were pot metal.

Matt, you can make that. Look at it again. Make a section at a time and put them together. Easy.

The one pictured is brass? Looks like rust around the center section to me??

Here is a better idea, Why not just recast the whole thing. I need three and you need one. I am sure there are others out there that would need one also. Having some stuff cast now, not cheap but If we had one it could be done.

Owen already said he could help but would be time consuming.
Clinton, after I posted this I did look at it closer and saw that if I made it in pieces it could be welded together.
Kevin, I took a closer look. It is not brass, it is pot metal. Even worse to try and repair.

OK--I thought as much, because mine is some kind of aluminum and more than likely the same stuff. Just didn't look like brass? You could get someone with a CNC machine, to make you a duplicate of an original!

I need one myself and I would be willing to have them made if no one else wants to? I would need a pattern. Thanks

I confess...I have been hoarding these.
I offer quart can re-lidding, can rolling, lid stamping, and dent removal.

WOW, that is cruel, any sharing involved here or renting for a duplicate casting?
