The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I am restoring my grandparents Edison Chalet. The machine is not a problem but the base record cabinet is requiring major cabinet work. The base cabinet is the one with the Haag storage system. Unfortunately, the base cabinet is the issue. If this were not a family piece, it is such bad shape that it would not get restored. The Haag system was completely gone as is the front door for the cabinet. I have a Haag system from another cabinet that I think will work. I am going to have to cut it down as from the pictures I have seen, my base cabinet has 37 slots and the salvaged one that I have been able to find has 42. If anyone has one of these cabinets in tact, I need the length, width, and the height of the door which goes over the record compartment. I have seen pictures of this base cabinet on this forum. This is the cabinet that was specifically made to go with the Chalet and it is red gumwood.

I have a red gumwood Chalet with matching base cabinet (The Haag & Bissex record file cabinet) what do you want me to measure?

Like this ?? I bought mine from Wyatt early last year.

The Haag & Bissex record file cabinet with mechanical push-button ejector.

This is the exact machine and base cabinet in the pictures. I need to have the door replicated which goes over the record compartment in the record cabinet. The original one on mine was long gone. I need the length, width, and height. Thank you for all of your help.

OK will do in the next day or two.
