Hey Mark, thanks for finding the crane to send pictures. Unfortunately that's not the type of crane I'm looking for, that's for a straight horn, Im looking for a crane for a Cygnet horn, the type that curves and hangs above. Thanks though, I'm sure someone else would be interested in buying it off you if you're interested in selling it stillMark Hagen wrote: Mon Aug 23, 2021 5:21 pm Here a picture of what I have. When put together, the short part is 5 ½ inches and the long part with the chain is 18 ½ inches, ¼ inch in diameter.
I think this fix a Edison Gem and some Fireside models.

If you are looking for a cygnet crane for a Fireside with an angled carriage, the crane you are looking for would like like this:

Re: Wanted: Cygnet crane for fireside
Sorry Mark but your crane is for the small straight morning glory horn used on some Gems and Firesides. The thread author is looking for a crane for the curved Cygnet horn.Here a picture of what I have. When put together, the short part is 5 ½ inches and the long part with the chain is 18 ½ inches, ¼ inch in diameter.
I think this fix a Edison Gem and some Fireside models.

That crane is for a horizontal carriage with a Diamond B reproducer. I think the crane for an angled carriage is what is needed.
