Hi Allen. I typed in "motrola winder" and got two hits on eBay. No machine, but one the ad which PeterF posted and another for some mounting parts.

A Motrola winder sounds like a cool accessory, but then I'd have to have some 1910s dry-cells to put in the cabinet and install a light. Maybe then some record brushes, a volume control, the Add-A-Tone horn for the reproducer, fibre needle cutters, Dustone, repeater attachment, set of albums...

I still think the previous owners had the best accessories, though. Behind the records there were some bottle rings where the booze had been hidden back during anno Volsteadii. 8-) Guess they were pretty chill.

Hi all,
I just searched for this post a second time and made a sketch of the hardware for attaching to the Edison. I did this to help in buying the correct items in the future. My but the Forum is a fine source of not only information but friendly helpful people.
