Hello
I picked up this machine a few years ago and is in very good original working condition.
Unfortunately the crank was lost many years ago and a "make do" crank from a portable was on the machine when I received it.
This is a very small single spring machine.
Can anyone send me a picture of the proper crank along with the dimensions so I have a better idea of what I am looking for in my travels?
Tried to research this particular model but came up empty handed.
Thanks
Steve

Re: Pathéphone # 2 Missing Crank
Here is the crank on a Pathé D model, I assume that yours would be similar....

Hi Steve
I believe there are 2 winders for Pathé machines and your #2 I think should have a straight crank. There is a chap in France that makes these (kraftwerknation) so you may wish to contact him on Ebay France. I have purchased parts for my Pathés. I made a winder for my machine using a wooden file handle bought off Ebay. It also has a slot end.
Hope this helps. Good luck

Here is a pic of the Pathé #2 directly from the Pathé 1914 catalog, showing the correct crank...
