Hello everyone I'm new to this forum. My name is Nick I'm a 13 year old phonograph collector who has been collecting since I got my first phonograph at age 8. I rebuild motors and yes I install mainsprings, I also restore phonographs and resell them. I run a small business at the flea market here in Nashville, Tennessee and it's lots of fun. I own 10 phonographs but my collection is in the process of going from quantity to quality so only half of them are desirable. So anyway I need a crank for an Edison BC-34. If anybody has a spare crank they could sell me then send me an Email.

Ok I will check with Ron. I've bought several mainsprings from him and he is always very helpful and friendly to work with.
Thanks!

I have an unknown manufacturers crank that is approximately 14" in length. If you know the dimensions or if someone could post a picture of one I could possibly check.
