Wasn't Carsten Fischer making those?
John, It would be complicated by the fact that the ones for the bottom and top drawers are cut differently so are not interchangeable. I have another almost complete set but would you believe the one divider I'm missing is also missing in the extra set :cry:

I don't know Carsten Fischer but if he's selling these, I need a set for my W250 too. Not sure if they are cut the same or not.

Of course the excuse...errr... reason... for having more than one is that in addition to the obvious difference between oak, mahogany and walnut there is alot of variation in other characteristics of the cabinet, record storage etcetera...

Is there a sort of Betty Ford center for Phonoholics? Perhaps I need to check in??? I wonder what they would do there? They'd probably confiscate the cranks to all my machines and teach me how to use an IPOD? :monkey:

I had a complete set of the dividers a few years back and my friend Loran Hughes of Phono-L reproduced them. You may want to contact him . http://[email protected]. He churned out some great reproductions and I assume he still has the files to to it again (?)

Thanks alot for the tip. I know Loran. I will contact him.

Now I just wonder if they will fit a W250? He might know.

As I mentioned, even on the A250 the cut is different for the top and bottom drawer. They are not interchangeable.
