WANTED: Replacement Amberola V Feet

Post by LimeTree99 »

Currently looking for replacement "bun feet" for an Amberola V that was improperly shipped, causing the front two feet to break off and get crushed to pieces.
Does anyone happen to have reproductions of this?

I've attached a photo of one of the feet that got "amputated". It's pieced together, but far too brittle to hold any weight.

Keep that foot for a pattern. Any good woodworker should be able to duplicate it...

Might be something that’s close enough, and cheaper than custom-made, here:
