Re: [Phono-L] Oak Puritan and other stuff
Magh is the misspelled abbreviation of mahogany, that would be my guess. Who or what is Magh? Ron L ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org

Oh please, been around a long time. Will maho work better? LOL Or is that something you put on your sandwich? Mike Oldcranky. BTW, I read thru' it and didn't even stumble at the abbreviation. I had to go back and look for it On Wed, Feb 24, 2010 at 8:26 AM, Bruce Mercer maxbu...@wowway.com wrote: Magh is the misspelled abbreviation of mahogany, that would be my guess. Who or what is Magh?

Re: [Phono-L] Amberola question on fit.
You can put a 50 motor in a 30 box. The only issue you will have is the spring that holds the horn up, it is in a different place for the 30 and the 50. The later metal motorboards are made universal so you can put the double spring or the single spring on then and the two spots for the brass hook that hold the spring that supports the horn are drilled and tapped. The son of the original owner of a 30 had me replace his broken metal motorboard. I took a 50 bedplate and installed it with two springs and relocated the hook. I swapped out the ID plates which were both on the motor board and after I was finished the only way you could tell was the second spring barrel.

I've just won what I hope is a restorable mechanism with mounts and a real tough horn for an amberola 75. I know the 50 and 75 cabinets were larger than the 30, but wondered if the 30 mounts and horn were used would the 75 works fit in the 30 cabinet. There is a kind of tough 30 cabinet and horn on the bay now but if it will fit could still keep looking for a better cabinet. I think chances of finding a good 30 box is better than finding any 50 box. ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
Re: [Phono-L] Amberola question on fit.
Wonderful news. Thanks Steve. I will wait until I actually get the mechanism here to look for a cabinet. I know the mandrel is in sad plating shape. Don ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
