The Pendragons was made from scratch by the late Sun Valley Sam Fehrens. A retired machinist with a fully equipped machine shop beside his house. If you search the internet and find plans and specifics, a machine shop could probably assist you in fabrication.

Just Google "Cam Clutch", Cam Clutch bearing" or "one-way bearing" - there's loads of them!

(I had one years ago, a facinating mechanism that I haven't a clue as to how it works - it looks exactly like a largish bearing but will only turn in one direction, and has no "backlash" whatsoever. - Never found a use for it though!!!)
