The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hi,does anyone know who might stock a small mainspring for a Bing Pigmyphone ?
I am in the UK so it will need to be someone who will post to here.
Thanks

Try "Soundgen" who is a UK member of this forum and stocks a range of new springs.

Or try our man "oop North", Ken Priestley.

You can also try Meadows & Passmore, who are in UK.
Have a look at Chapter 15 of the CLOCKMAKERS' SUPPLIES CATALOGUE.
They also sell aluminium & mica diaphragms, needles & record sleeves!
If you cant find the spring you need in the gramophone spring section, don't forget to check the clock spring section of Chapter 1, as many are identical to some gramophone springs.
I believe they can also make & supply ANY size spring to order.

Any brand, any size, anywhere in the world, this is the place you'll get the exact spring you need.

Could you please let me know the spring thickness, width, length, mass and the inner and outer end attachment configurations? Or spring number? I have many "new" springs (wrapped and boxed, good as new, but actually quite old) and may be able to help.

I believe I saw a complete Bing Pigmyphone motor on eBay last night.

Good day, Gramtastic, Did you manage to find a replacement spring for the Pigmyphone??
