I think its a standard taper pin, you cut it to proper length. John Selph wrote: > Unfortunately, the pin was missing when the unit was given to me, so I don't > have an original to go by.

I haven't been following this thread very closely, but if this is the drive pin on the turntable spindle, you need not worry about the pin being tapered, but you can get a rollpin from even some good hardware stores. You'll buy a pin for use with the hole on the shaft, then press the pin into the shaft, and you'll be home safe. > [Original Message] > From: Rich <[email protected]> > To: Antique Phonograph List <[email protected]> > Date: 12/3/2008 2:54:46 PM > Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Victor VV-1-1 > > I think its a standard taper pin, you cut it to proper length. > > John Selph wrote: > > Unfortunately, the pin was missing when the unit was given to me, so I don't > > have an original to go by.
