The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

On request, there is the first photo of the restoration process, the German gramophone box with the new finish, the reconstructed top and new oak leaf, now waiting for the columns and the bronze finishes being treated.

The new finish looks great. Thanks for sharing your progress.

The engine is already regulated and lubricated, it was not necessary to exchange any part, the plate has already received a new layer of nickel. Waiting for the arrival of the oak box with the treated metal trimmings for assembly. I am very anxious to see everything ready. Watch the video

O motor pronto, aguardando o gabinete.

Metais tratados, agora vamos para a montagem.

Wow! Very nice!

And the assembly goes fast. Engine already reinstalled, decoration of the box already placed, now is to pick up and assemble the nickel-plated parts to leave it ready.
This gramophone had all parts restored, nothing but the engine remained as it was before due to the precarious state it was.
Looking forward to seeing you ready.

Muy Bueno!

Friends, Lindström / Parlophon is almost ready, I did not resist and I made a beautiful photo. Failure to install the speed controller and align the plate by stirring in the engine block. The Campanula is not original, I used a Columbia until I found some more appropriate. Hope you enjoy, this is the result of two months of restoration work.

Simply stunning! Congratulations!
