Finally Arrived
I have posted pictures of this cabinet before, but it was still in California. It was delivered to my door Saturday and I couldn't wait to get it unwrapped. I, like many of you guys have had many quarter sewn oak machines but this is the nicest I have ever seen. Thanks to Ken on the board, I have a horn made and it is at Greg Clines now for a wood grain. I took a picture beside a XVII to give you an idea of the size. Of course I had to add one that I Photo shopped. One thing about this cabinet is the doors don't open unless the top drawer is open?

Re: Finally Arrived
Wow beautiful cabinet and to hide a cylinder player, would be interested in seeing it all set up with the proper machine. I think I've seen pictures of them like this but for outside horn disc machines.

Re: Finally Arrived
They originally had a paper mache horn. I think that is why their gone. Wasp and mud dobbers took care of them. I am putting a Home 2,4 minute with a horizontal carriage and an O reproducer in it.Pathé wrote:Wow beautiful cabinet and to hide a cylinder player, would be interested in seeing it all set up with the proper machine.

Ronnie,
Thanks for the mention of the paper mache horn. I can't wait to see it with the horn installed. Greg does awesome work with woodgraining. I am delivering another horn to Tim Fabrizio at the Union show. I am in the process of making another one to take along for sale.

Re: Finally Arrived
I spoke with Greg last week. He said he was starting on the horn, and it needed to set up for 2 weeks to cure. After 6 months, what's a couple more weeks. I will call you when I put the horn in.Phono-Phan wrote:Ronnie,
