I made an aluminum base plate based on DustyB's picture provided. Thanks again DustyB!  I used an old scrap speed limit sign I had and cut it out of that.  Believe it or not, I was able to find locally, NOS 10-32 Palnuts.  It was an all or none purchase so now I have around 80-100 of these...   I was not able to find any feet that were close to original so I decided to use what I had, and since I have extra Palnuts,  I used them as fasteners on the feet as well. Not correct as original, but it all matches nicely and I think it looks good...

Very nice, that turned out great!  Looks better than new! The palnuts are also a nice touch.

Great job that looks really neat ! 
 

That came out NICE !

Wallfish - Sorry not sure if you mean closer to the tank center lengthwise or widthwise...  I should have labeled the picture.  Can you verify "A" or "B" in the picture below, thanks!
 
 

That pull knob turned out fantastic!

That replica starter pull is very nice, once painted I guess anyone would have a difficult job telling it apart from the original.
 
The governor vane should look more like this (one I repaired on my very first O&R, a slightly newer Tiny Tor);


 
Earlier version on a Tiny Tiger;

 
And for completeness, here is a really early vane.

 
Later engines had a governor vane that used a fixed plastic blade, in two sizes depending on whether it was for a 13A or 13B engine.

I turned a starter handle out of oak. Here are my dimensions and finished handle (except for primer/black paint):
 

 
 
I received the parts shipment from Wallfish - thank you very much!  I should now be able to finish rebuilding the carb and work on the starter issue with installation of correct dogs/pawls and reel.  
 
I have a request for proper bend/angle for the governor vane/blade. When I took the blower housing off for the first time it looked like this:
 

 
That is obviously not correct.  Luckily this vane is metal, probably aluminum, so I can straighten out the bent tip on the left side but I need to know where to bend it on the right side near the rivets.  Is it bent on an angle or just straight from front to back, and at what angle should it sit in reference to the vertical cylinder behind it?  I assume it should be around the 10 o'clock position? 
 
Once again your help is greatly appreciated, thank you.
 
 
 
 

Okay Factory was correct - I was able to remove the spool without removing that retainer for the spring. All I needed to do was to release the tension on the spring by removing the cord and letting it unwind.  I then just rocked the spool back and forth while pulling upward and after a minute or two it came off.  I will NOT attempt to remove that retainer clip.  I'll just clean and lubricate the spring in place.
 
Wallfish - thanks for the update on the shipment.  I'll let you know when it arrives.
 
I really appreciate all the help and correspondence on this forum. Thank you!

The hole for the cord is 5/32" diameter and the counterbore is close to 9/32" diameter , I've double checked the depth with a vernier and it is 1.75" (1 3/4").
 
Good to know the spring & rubber spacer are still there, a few less parts to make.

After a couple weeks with no time to dedicate to these, I have an update:
 
On the Drillgine, I had to reinstall the starter pull cord and also fix the end of the recoil spring that sticks out through the blower housing so it would stay in place.  Then with the new diaphragm in the carb I was able to get her running. Chucked up a 3/8" drill bit and drilled some holes through a 2x4 to see how it ran under load.  Runs nicely.
 
On the Tiny Tiger, I had taken some carb parts and used them to get the Drillgine going and needed some other parts. Wallfish is in the process of shipping me parts he had this week. Hopefully that will get me further along to the point I can try to start it.  I still need the wooden handle for the pull cord.  It is the wooden longer black handle with ball end.  Would anyone have dimensions they would share with me (Thanks again DustyB for the awesome base diagram!) I'll need overall length, shank length, and diameter of ball end. If someone provides this information, I'll try my hand at turning one on the wood lathe.

2" overall length

Thank you DustyB. This is exactly what I need to fabricate a base!
