FOUND: Half Nut Bar for Edison Standard B

Post by hearsedriver »

I am in need of the flat bar that holds the half nut/feed nut to the carriage on a Edison Standard B phonograph. If anyone has a B they are parting out, please give me a shout. Thanks!

Did it break while you were attempting to adjust it? It has happened to others, too!

Yes it did. Snapped like a piece of glass.

This is the reason why I don't bend this bar to make the adjustments. It is best to shim under the bar with thin pieces of paper.

Ken, I have to learn everything the hard way :D
Hopefully, someone here will have one for me. I'm dead in the water without it.

Stupid question. Is it just a flat piece of metal?

Basically, yes but, its a hard , spring steel. I may have to make one out of a saw blade or something.

How about a thick automotive feeler gauge?
