Looking for Oesterlein Mill or parts

Recently bought an Oesterlein Ohio #2 Universal Mill, vintage 1927, SN B461. Missing most of the mechanical feed system between the gearbox and the knee. Rebuilt what I have, and there are workarounds for the feed system, but I would be very interested in finding another of the same machine-either plain or universal-in any condition as long as it is reasonably complete.

This is a nice old machine, and cleans up well. I know there are several others on this site that have similar Oesterlein machines. If I can help anyone else with rebuild questions, I have completely dissembled this machine, and have pictures that I can share.

I will post pix as soon as I can figure out how to on this site.
