Victor Exhibition Reproducer

Post by dutchman »

Found this Exhibition reproducer in one of my parts boxes. Looks like the thumb screw must have been broken off somewhere along the way. It appears to have been drilled out but never re-threaded.

I have a tap & Die set but nothing this small. Anyone know if Ron Stiko does this type stuff? I was bidding a Exhibition on EB but lost. Thanks

I have a tap that is small enough for needle tumbscrews that I use all the time. It is a #256 tap and it's available on the Internet just look it up. The thumb screws that I use are from a specialty hardware store.

That's what I prolly need to do with a favorite Orthophonic - I have used it to death, apparently stripping out the threads for the screw.

John Nagy redid one for me a little over a year ago. He did a great job. His site: www.phongraphs.org
Good Luck!

It's either a 2-56 or a 1-72 thread. I believe one size is for an Exhibition and the other is for a #2. Can't remember now which is which.
