The teeth don’t look as bad now cause I carefully filed them. The problem is that some of the teeth are just too short! So it won’t mesh with the govenor gear. I’m good friends with a machinist so maybe he can help me make one.JerryVan wrote: ↑Fri May 07, 2021 8:11 am I saw this on FB too. Nice machine, and a very nice buy! Glad you got it! It was made after Victor took over Zonophone, so a Victor slotted crank would be appropriate. The "conversion" to a rear mount arrangement was done by the factory and is proper and correct.
It's hard to tell from your photos, but the gear doesn't look all thaaaaat bad. If my shop weren't torn down , I could make you one.
Is it possible to disassemble the gear and press a new one back on?
