WTB: TW Timer
I'm interested in buying a used TW timer with brush holder. It can be worn out. I'm making a new timer for a friend's 1906 Franklin and want to use the guts from a model t ford timer. I would love to set him up with the TW design.
Please email me if you have something you are willing to part with.
Thank you.

Re: WTB: TW Timer
I can supply this brush timer part at $25 each if you are interested.
They are NOS from the 1920s.

Re: WTB: TW Timer
Tom VanMeeteren, specializes in early ignition parts. I was able to get parts for Atwater Kent system. He posts here so look for a post and contact him. I won't give his contact info without his permission, but a search of the foram is easy to bring him up. He is real helpfull and is knowledeable about all makes from 1900 on.

Re: WTB: TW Timer
The web site says they are now manufactured and sold by Lang's.

I think the timing indicator is made by Langs, not the timer itself?BE_ZERO_BE wrote: ↑Sun Aug 14, 2022 9:19 pmThe web site says they are now manufactured and sold by Lang's.

Re: WTB: TW Timer
Thanks MAG.
I bought the one above from him, but wouldn't mind a few spares kicking around.... If anyone else comes up with something.
