Edison Standard 2/4 gear conversion

[CarGuyZM10]

Hello everyone. First off, thanks for all the help you guys have given me so far. My next thing is that I want to convert my Edison Standard B to play 4 minute cylinders as well. I have been looking for gears for a while now (that were within the price range of a recent college graduate), and I think I found some, but I just want to make sure that these are complete and will work well for me. Will you please take a look, since I can't figure out how to load the pictures off from ebay? Thanks!

The gear cover is missing and I think there's a gear on the mandrel shaft that is missing. It's really tough to buy parts to convert a machine. It's much easier to buy a 2&4 minute machine to begin with. (But that's water under the bridge) Good luck. Jerry

IMHO if you want to buy this kind of thing get it from a good/knowledgeable seller and buy the COMPLETE unit... buying all the bits from various sellers will eventually cost much much more and it might still not work at the end.

check croakinfrog on Ebay, he's got the stuff you need to convert your machine.

indeed it's not cheap but it should work; I've dealt with him and he's a good guy and he knows the stuff.

cheers and good luck with the machine.

Froggy has a cheaper one without the gear cover, which you don't really need if you're just looking to play records: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-4-GEARING-FOR ... 0823697034
