Hello everyone, I have a walking wheel that (according to my mother) I am the 8th generation to have ownership of. I am hoping to keep it in good condition and pass it onto the next generation. Unfortunately, in a recent move, the moving company lost 2 pieces. We have hopes that they will be able to locate them but chances are of course that they won't. I don't know what to call the missing pieces, I've looked online but have not seen any wheels made exactly like mine and none that have the missing piece on top. I believe this came over from Germany with my family but am not 100% sure.
I've attached photos if anyone can tell me what these pieces are called so I can better work with the moving company I would really appreciate it.
Thanks so much for any help.
Above is the entire wheel
There use to be two of these small knobs sticking up from the main board (center of the picture). One is now missing and if not found will need to be duplicated. I don't know what this is called.
Under the main board, there were two pieces of wood holding the main arm in place. I would call these dowels but I'm not sure that's the correct description. One is of course missing and will need to be reproduced if the original can not be found.
