Someone made them in epoxy, but I only found one - just after it sold.

Valcan Records of the UK makes a reproduction 6” cylinder. Not cheap though.

Nice machine. I have a BGT as one of the stars of my collection. It has a 9 panel nickel plated horn and 2/4 min. gearing. I have had good luck finding 6 inch cylinders. I bought a lot of 3 at Stanton’s a few years ago and a friend sold me some a couple of years ago. Good luck in your quest for cylinders.
