Heidelberg windmill wash up blade unit help

Hello,

I hope you’re all well? I’ve finally got my windmill up and printing. However, it didn’t come with a wash up unit. I’ve managed to find a spare blade and a trough. But lack the other parts. Could someone please send me a photo of the unit. Also, if anyone has built one I’d love some tips.

Thanks again everyone, all your contributions have taught me so much (actually, everything)

Look on Letterpress Commons for their Heidelberg 10 x 15 Parts Manual. You’re missing the handle and the ball that goes on the end. I’d be looking for a complete unit.

Whittenburg sells them complete I think

Yup, I found one https://whittenburginc.com/product/sludge-trough/
Sludge Trough
SKU: T06102 Category: Platen / Windmill Parts

I’d be looking for a deal on a used one.

Thanks everyone!
