TTinsmith Making Phono Horn

Post by cleveland1996 »

Hi Folks,

Check this out. I ran across this video of a tinsmith making a phonograph horn. Very interesting if you have never seen this done.

Happy Collecting...

I wish I had his abilities. I would also love to buy one of his horns as a conversation piece.

Great video, thanks for posting. Amazing how simple things look when someone knows what he's doing.

At the end I was suprised though that the phonograph pulled this huge horn through without a crane.

Great video. Thanks for sharing..

There does appear to be a crane foot on the left hand side looking at the front. I think the arms might be hidden behind the horn. Also appears to be a dimple inside the horn near where a ring would have been place on the opposite side.
