I was curious to know if a crane was available for an Edison Triumph phonograph that would fit in the lid socket of the cabinet. I have seen them available for Homes. Did they make them for the Triumph? I have a "J" Repeater attachment I would like to have working, but no room for a floor or long table crane foot. These repeaters are finicky and won't function well with a lot of horn weight. I believe a 20" horn would be ideal.
Thanks

I'd suggest making your own... otherwise, a floor crane is a good solution as you can fold it and store it anywhere.
in the end you have to undo your setup with either style anyway.
