Need help fixing or finding the plastic bushing.   The 1 inch inside diameter hole is worn so the pin/screw is wobbly. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

Modern Conscience lists various hub bushings sized for HM Eames chairs on their site:

I've no experience with them and have read mixed reviews in the past, but might be worth a try.

Thanks for the advice.  I was unable to find the bushing on their site and my emails have gone unanswered.   For now I’ve used a patio furniture bushing that I had to shave with a file but it seems to work.   At some point I may try 3D printing.   Thanks again for the help.
