Bob,
The Smiths make excellent repros of those parts.  I see them on Ebay once in a 
while, too.  The X2 is actually marked X2 on the traveling arm.  If you need 
exact lengths of either arm, let me know.
Check out www.windups.com for the Smiths.

Thanks for the response. I will give it a try as I think I would like to
display the morning glory horn over the smaller black trumpet type .

If I could find the support arm. traveling arm, elbow, and reproducer for
the x2 it would be great. As it is,
I am lacking those parts and can only display one machine.

If anyone has a contact for those parts, I would appreciate it.

Bob

horns. The Model X has a shorter traveling arm and the shorter, black
belled trumpet horn. The X2 has a longer arm and uses the morning glory
horn. However, the morning glory horn will work with the shorter arm, just
not as well. It might have a tendency to tip a bit. Try it though, What
can you lose?

The Smiths and this place that make Exhibition flanges

http://www.rmrmfg.com/phono.html

are the only excellent reproduction parts I know of.  It seems to me that 
the quality of most reproduction parts has declined.
