I have a Powermatic TS80 SAC shaper.
Where can I purchase or find a 1-1/4” spindle for it?
Thanks in advance...

You are very likely going to have a tough time finding that spindle. I think SAC are no longer made. Best bet may be to talk to a machine shop about making a spindle for you. Or keep watching that auction site. The machine shop route may be quicker, good luck.
I'm right in the middle of having a batch of spindles made for a different machine, and the price is $220 CAN apiece for a batch of 8 in 4140HT. A one-off might run $300+ range, just to give you a ballpark. This is CNC with no cylindrical grinding.

Would a Grizzly spindle fit in your shaper? You could always call Grizzly and ask.
There have been problems and injuries because guys who did not know spindle change proper procedure ,did it anyway.
So I doubt you would find an interested shop. But I'm pretty sure they could do it.
