I'm working on my first machine - a V-23E - and am in need of a Index Latch Spring ##38130.  Where can I purchase?  Many thanks in advance - I love this site.

Welcome Steveo!
I don't think it is a part being reproduced, but you could check with Steve Jebb at www.sodajerkworks.com and Steve Ebner at Fun-Tronics (301) 371-5246.
For as many V-23's are out there, there are just not a lot of repro parts out there.
I'll have to take another look at mine, but as I recall it is not that intricate of a piece.
Maybe somebody here has one laying around?

Went down to the hardware store this weekend, and combed through their big selection of springs.  Was lucky enough to find one with a long tail, nearly the diam. of my latch spring.  Some bending and lip biting later, I'm good to go with my latch spring.

Glad you're back in business ! ! !
Sometimes, local stores have close replacements that can be slightly modified to function.
Thanks for gettin' back to us!
