Edison red Gem complete at last

[kirtley2012]

I put a post up a little while ago about this Edison Gem D that I found on Gumtree about 20 minutes away from me, this machine was originally sold in Jarrow, near Newcastle, England which is where I'm from so of course I had to have it, I've since named it the 'Geordie Gem'

it came needing some adjustments but it was missing some parts, least of all the horn and crane, I recently bought an original Gem horn that had quite a lot of surface rust and pitting, it had maybe 5-10% of the paint remaining so it obviously needed repainting so I've painted it into a red horn for the Gem, and made a crane and the Geordie gem is complete for the first time in many years, I'm happy how the horn turned out, though one or two little spots to touch up.

Well done Alex---looks marvelous and the colour is very appealing in my opinion.

Cheers!, I think I've got the colour fairly close to original, certainly an attractive looking machine
