Amazing Restoration...

Post by Curt A »

Amazing restoration/repair... I recently purchased a Victrola wreath key that was bent and had some damage. I took this to a friend and he worked an absolute miracle. He took the wreath key and another brass key - cut them both and mated them back together. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't watch him do it... Thanks, Bill.

Your Friend Bill is a genius. If you wouldn't have said anything, I'd swear it is all original.
