Faultless feet ??
Posted: Fri Jul 14, 2017 3:41 pm
I have an Edison S19 diamond disc player that I am restoring and I have run into a problem that I was hoping someone could help me with.
The machine was in pretty rough shape, especially the casters (brand name: Faultless Feet) which look to have been gold plated. I could re-plate them but I have decided to guild them to match the caps. But, they were in such bad shape I had to take them apart. In doing so I found that that shaft that the wheel spins on was wound in cotton string. I am assuming this was done for a better fit and to hold lubricant. My problem is: How do I rewind the shaft or is there some other substitute fix that people use?
