Many parts of lapidary equipment are either generic bearings, bushings, and fasteners, or custom parts that may need to fabricated to meet a need.  Tell us what you need and how you've attempted to deal with those deficiencies, and we might be able to help better.  I have a working slab saw that has not manual, no manufacturer, no known history other than being recovered as a very rusting machine.  One part of it is a gear box that was made by a company that went out of business at the end of WWII.   When that part fails, its improvise and talk to a machinist.  Fixing old equipment is part of the avocation.  Good luck.
