Hi all,
Trying to find a crank handle for my BZH phonograph. Does anyone know how to do a thread count? I measured and it appears to be 5/16" wide. Thanks for any help! And if you happen to have the crank I need let me know! Needs to be have at least a 4" shaft. The one I got is perfect, except the opening is ¼" which is a tiny bit too small.
Thanks!!

I don't have a thread gauge; but I could take the crank from my BZH to the hardware store and see what fits.

I have to admit being uneducated in this all I know are in the slot cranks, female and male cranks none of which I saw mentioned. Threads …. beyond me! Also I thought you should try finding parts in what is it called Yankee trader?
