I have a cabinet with horn & doors lid 8-30 will sale plus shipping I'm in oregon. From ClockworkHome Wed Jun 9 19:02:41 2004 From: ClockworkHome ([email protected]) Date: Sun Dec 24 13:10:43 2006 Subject: [Phono-L] Edison Business Phonograph Model C repair question Message-ID: <[email protected]>
I recently didn't get my bid in on time to win the Edison Business Phonograph Model C on eBay. Don't you just love "sniping?" Whoever "restoration-1" the winner is, he has not answered a question I sent him. So, I now put the question to this list. The madrel has potmetal bearings on each end so that it revolves around a steel tube. I have successfully reamed and machined the bearing surfaces in preparation for brass sleeves. At the very end the potmetal had expanded and completely fallen free. This will be replaced with an aluminum turning, buffed shiny to resemble the nickeled mandrel. Thus the question is, "Has anyone tried this before? And, does my solution sound reasonable?" Thanks for any help or suggestions, Al From markelynch Wed Jun 9 22:51:01 2004 From: markelynch (Mark Lynch) Date: Sun Dec 24 13:10:43 2006 Subject: [Phono-L] Union--Delivery to East Coast??
