Thanks John! That's what I was afraid of, after having checked out the internals... But it's good to hear it from one of the experts!
Anyone know what a typical Fireside goes for?

In the 2/4 machine, there is an added gear cluster that halves the speed of the feed nut, not the speed of the machine. You would need something to increase the speed of the feed nut, which would take some very customized, and I would guess expensive, engineering. Better to invest in a good 2 minute machine, and for playing 2 minute I recommend an Edison Fireside. Any other recommendations?? > John
