I rescued a Hamilton dryer today. It's in nice shape, but the heating element is broken at one of the terminals. Does anyone have a spare or can I use an element from something else.

I'll take pictures and post the model. It's too obnoxious and huge to be dead yet.

Thanks Travis

Depending on what it looks like, you might be able to restring it.

I looked at it again. It needs to be restrung. I'm not sure where to get the mica washers that were used at the ends.
