Good luck with this...

Restored Standard Model A for sale...
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Antique-STANDA ... 1196.m2219

Notice that this machine comes fitted with the buyer’s choice of a new regular spindled turntable with new green felt that can play most any 78rpm record or the original large spindle cast iron turntable also with new felt that can ONLY play Standard brand records, or any 78rpm record with a Standard sized spindle hole. It is easy to drill regular 78rpm records to fit :evil: , or find original Standard brand records on eBay & elsewhere.

Does it come with pre-drilled 78's?

Or the proper adapter turntable... Are they still making them for these machines? I think I got mine form either JAS or Croaking Frog?

EDIT: Nevermind. they mentioned that option. Still steep for a Standard machine, and a bit foolish to mention to drill 78s.
