Iv seen the felt on other victor machines with felt on them too, I would
assume it is correct on that basis.

I'm working on a Victor P, the one based on the R with its metal motorboard.
This one has strips of felt-like material around the underside perimeter of
the motorboard.  Should they be there?   The cabinet has countersunk areas
where the mounting screws go into the case.  I imagine the vibration damping
material was there.  Felt or rubber?Oh, other questions.   Should the
screws holding the support arm to the case be bright finish or blackened?
Is the brake exactly the same as on other P machines.  This one had a rubber
washer mounted with an ugly screw and bolt fastening. 

Thanks!

The Victor P like the R uses green felt around the perimeter of the motorboard 
or bedplate. You are correct. It's purpose is to dampen the sound.The screws 
that hold the arm are oxidized, as is the. escutcheon and screws. The crank 
should be nickel plated. Please post your name so we know who you are.Harvey

Interesting.   The brake and speed control that are on this machine look like 
they were nickel plated.   I'm guessing this unit was a cheaply done parts 
assembly made to look like a P.

It is oxidized to match the bedplate.
