Excellent - gave you points for this guide.

Question:

The gears, where do we get them from?

I'm refurbishing a vintage handmixer from the 60s, those here looks like they have same gear cut pattern but of course here we need exact replacements and no guessing.

Anyone knows the most specialized and broad range mixer replacement part manufacturer?

I will post also about this, but thought as I'm in the correct category here I could ask.

My handmixer is on Deutsche Kunststoff Museum with search word "ABC MIX" it's a German vintage handmixer and only problem is the drive train wheel cog gears that should be nylon I think, not plastic not metal (sadly), so they deteriorate.

Any help with great gratitude embraced!

Thats what I want to know too. I have a Hamilton Beach hand mixer. The gears look the same as the one shown in this article

On it now. Let's hope we don't need to buy Cheap-China-plastic. Ideal of course would be to find metal gears, that would last whole life (if not motor breaks).

I also need to find a manufacturer of cog drive train wheels, that could do custom made, tailored, because if you refurbish a vintage handmixer you need parts that are not manufactured or in circulation anymore.
