WANTED: Edison Standard Model D Case Bottom & Lid Handle

Post by Phonofreak »

I just got lucky and got a Standard Model F project machine. I need a case bottom with the tall molding. This was used on the Standard model D and up. Also, I need a complete lid handle with all the hardware. I rather go with the Forum than ebay or the usual parts dealers. Thanks in advance,
Harvey Kravitz

I asked Bill and he said he might have one, but has to look... Sitko has the handles...

I have been evaluating my Standard Model F. The 4 sides of the case are in better shape than I thought. What I really need is all 4 pieces of the bottom molding. That is the tall molding that goes around the bottom of the case. It is not the base board that is used on the Standard A or B. If anyone has a junk case with good molding, let me know for purchase.

HI Harvey,
I have a complete Edison Standard D case, lid and all the hardware available. If you are interested.
It is in solid shape but the old finish is flaking off.

Re: Found: Edison Standard Model D Case Bottom,Need Lid Han

Thanks for the replies. I just got a case bottom. The deal is pending, though. All I need now is the lid handle. An important note. On the Model E,F,and G lids, there are three screws to hold the hanger pieces. The lids on the Model A through D have 4. That is why I want to restore this lid. I believe the handle is the same for all of the Standards. The A is green Oak though. Any leads on a handle will be appreciated.
