Dear John, I am new to this site, so I hope you get this email. I ran into this problem before, and here is my solution. I take a paneling nail and cut it to length. I remove the coating to make it silver color. I file down the edges, insert it in the spindle. To make it permanent, use JB weld 5 min. epoxy.I'll make you one if you send me an SASE. It only takes about 5 min. to make. Harvey Kravitz

That is the last piece that I need to complete this unit, and I'm not in a position to order other parts to reach a minimum purchase amount as required from most dealers.

The cover article is about providing insurance for collectables, but really doesn't have anything about phonographs particularly. Tyrone
