The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hello all , I am currently restoring an Edison Standard phonograph , model B . I need to replace the winding arbor that has a damaged thread . ( The model B has a threaded - end winding arbor ) so if anyone has a junk motor that has that part and would be willing to sell that to me , please get in touch. Also looking for a decent condition bed-plate for same as the paint finish on the one I have is less than good. Any help appreciated ! I am located in UK Regards Dulcetto

Aren't you willing to repaint the bed plate? We've seen marvelous restorations herein recently... Dzavraky? Kirtley? I don't remember... .
