I recently posted questions to the board about the possibility of converting a long bed Columbia BF with a 2-4 min conversion kit from a short bed Columbia BE. We discussed the problems with feedscrew lengths and I finally found a workable answer. I have posted pictures of this project on our website: www.carolinaphonosociety.com

Congratulations Curt. That was a fine restoration you did on your BF. I have a 2-4 min. BET that is in very fine condition. I love how those 2-4 min Columbia work.
