need replacement parts for edison home B

[kirtley2012]

A edison home that arrived in the post today arrived badly packaged and quite badly damaged!, part of the bed plate was broken, the hinged wooden part that holds the bed plate was completely torn to splinters and the arm for the govenor that links the friction pads to the screw was snapped.

I now need to replace those parts, so i need that wooden part and a new friction pad assembly, also i bought it as a restoration project so i will need a lift lever with the washer a winding handle and a belt!

I dont have any money yet so i will need to wait for the money to compensate for the damage to come through before i can pay for anything

so sorry for your loss Pictures Please I would deffently also file a insurance complaint

[kirtley2012]

Yeah i need to get some money from the insuerance, im not going to end up $360 out of pocket for a destroyed phonograph along with am extra $250 out of pocket for all the parts needed, i will send some pictures on sunday

ok, so heres the phonograph i was surpposed to receive

as you can see, it was still a restoration project but easily fixable

but..., heres what i did receive

yes....$360 for THIS!

the bed plate frame, ripped to shreds

a corner of the bed plate snapped!, i managed to super glue this one on and it looks ok, still not letting the post office off though!

govenor yolk snapped

its fixable but i cant afford to do it, especcially since im paying of a columbia q and i dont think the post office is going to pay out for the damages!!, does anyone have a bedplate frame and a govenor yolk for a home B?

I will keep my eyes open for you I do not have anything at this time .

I would think that the shipper would be responsible if it was well packed and the seller would be responsible if it was poorly packed. Do your have recourse with either? Jerry

Does anyone have these parts?
Im really quite pi***d because i have not yet been able to get any money so with a $250 repair cost and $360 total for the phonograph i will have spent $610 on a very average edison home B so as you can probably tell i am very unhappy because it took me it is 7 months saving down the drain

Hi Alex,
I just bought some parts from [email protected] The fellows name is Mark. I know he has the oak Motor board you need for your model B Home and probably has the rest. Drop him an email and he can give you a price quote.
