Neumann Chip Jar Seal
I'd like to replace my chip jar seal. Has anyone else done this? For a Neumann lathe. If so, what did you use and where did you get it. I'd like to save myself some legwork here and avoid researching if someone already knows.

Re: Neumann Chip Jar Seal
I haven't replaced mine but everything you need is at McMaster-Carr. I looked into it at one point. Look for 'gasket kit' or something like that. They have lots of different rubber edging and appropriate adhesives.
They also have adhesive backed foam if you want to replace the stuff on the manifold.

Thanks Paul! I know my jar seal doesn't have much life in it & I've been pondering finding a replacement as well recently.
Re: Neumann Chip Jar Seal
McMaster also carries the correct type of hose. It's "gum rubber" hose. Latex or fish tank hose doesn't work nearly as well.
