Re: Edison Home information
That's a very nice machine... not too many survived with the original bedplate striping in that great condition... It will probably be the start of an ongoing obsession...

Re: Edison Home information
Hi Jim,
It will be $30 to remove dents, true the bell as needed, and if you desire, $15 to buff out the bell. As that is original paint as Brad indicates, it will look like new when complete. John Duffy 860-966-2827

Re: Edison Home information
I got the Edison Home back from Brad Abell, and he did an amazing job cleaning it up and getting it working, as usual. I think I may have to have the horn done now, this looks so nice!

Yes, very nice. It's the definition of "collector quality."

Re: Edison Home information
Looks like it came out of the factory yesterday. That is a real nice keeper. It almost would be tempting to wrap it in plastic, then bubble wrap. and seal it in a air tight bag as you lock it in a safe but how could anyone else and you enjoy such a nice machine unless it is displayed. Tom

Re: Edison Home information
I could do that, I've got other machines to play 2 minute cylinders with. I should give it some thought.tomb wrote:Looks like it came out of the factory yesterday. That is a real nice keeper.

Thank you again, Brad Abell, for all the work you did on this machine. I won't be keeping it in bubble wrap, this needs to be played!
