I have a Lyman Power Trimmer & broke the blade on the chamfering bit.
Does anyone know where I can get a new one?
I posted this a week ago in the "Buy, Sell and Trade: Accessories and Parts"
But rec'd no replies.

Any help would be appreciated.

Make a replacement blade for it yourself. Looks like it's just held in place with a pin. Depending on what thickness it is a old hacksaw blade would be perfect. A little time on the grinder shaping it and it will be good to go. The hardest part would be drilling the hole for the pin. May need a solid carbide drill bit for that.
 
the blade broke right where it sticks out of the main body.
I don't have the part that broke off, I never found it.
 
If that's the case the picture show what it suppose to look like. If you don't find a replacement send me whats left and I will fit in a new blade. I have some old hack saw blades around if they are thick enough. I have some 440c knife steel I can use too, depending on the thickness required. I no longer have a furnace to heat treat with but can do it the old fashion way, torch. 440c see only needs to air cool to get it's hardness, then you draw it back. If too hot though you drive all of the carbon out and it want get as hard.
