I have what I guess would be considered a "grey-market" tiller, a Niplo model SC-1600. It is about 62 inches wide, works really well, and is pretty heavy duty. The only problem is that the tines are getting pretty badly worn, and there are several broken ones. I have been unable to find a source for replacement tines in my area (middle Tennessee). I did contact a place in Hawaii (Rainbow Distributing) that got in touch with the company in Japan that made the tiller, and they can get them for $28.00 each plus shipping. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif So it would cost almost as much to get a full set of tines (32 of them) as to buy a new KK tiller.

Anyone have any suggestions or possible sources for the tines? They are held on with two 14mm bolts, which is different than the other import tillers that I am familiar with, so I think it would be pretty difficult to modify some other tines (especially since they are so hard).

Thanks,
-Chuck

Do you need a tiller tine like this?

Mark,
Yes, they are shaped like that with the two bolt attachment. I took one tine off and traced the outline on paper, so it should be straightforward to compare them. Could you give me the name of your source, or would you rather I deal through you? If you would prefer, you can email me at: woodchuckc@mindspring.com

Thanks!
-Chuck
