I'm finally getting a mahoganny case for my A150 Diamond Disc machine. My cabinet is a disastor. The case needs shelf repair, and, a grill, but, the legs are in good shape, as is veneer.
Anyone have a correct horn grill for it? I believe it uses the same grill as the Amberola 3. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

The grill is interchangeable with the Amb 3 grill but that's not exactly going to make your job easier.

Tom makes very nice replacement grilles and you can stain them to match your cabinet.

Thanks, guys. I appreciate it. I contacted him. Probably order a grill next month.
Update......
It's on its' way. It was shipped last night by Fed EX. Should arrive Friday.
I've been trying to complete this machine since I bought it from my friend Bailey Teeters in 1968.
Old cabinet is a wreck.
The owner found the two original broken out pieces for the broken shelf. That can be fixed. The veneer is un dammaged, and, all legs complete.
He gave me the lid with it. I bought main case cheap, and, back door cost me a little more. When I get it I will start repairs on shelf, and, when it's stabilized, and, clean, I will transfer my works into it. Next month, I will order the grill for it. Should this machine have a grill cloth, and, if so, what type, and, color? Is it like the ones offered in ebay?
Does anybody remember Bailey Teeters of Detroit, Mich.?
Not real knowledgable on repairs, but, he was honest, and, a great guy.
He died two years after I met him... A shame... This is almost all I have left that I originally bought from him as a teen ager.
Now, I'll be able to restore it to what it looked like new.
I'm excited about that.
I'm working on several machines right now. I need case parts for my oak H 19, casters for my C 250, and, a replacement oak case for my Amberola 3.
Someone cut the legs off mine. Otherwise, it's complete.
And, boy, does that machine sound great with that Diamond A reproducer!!!

You will be happey with the grill for your machine. I used Gramps awhile back and ordered a grill for a Edison B-19 - perfect.
