I have an Edison P-1 reproducer that is missing the rubber isolator. Does anyone make those? What can I use to make one? Any ideas?

I would be willing to bet Wyatt (MicaMonster) could make one for you, he made one for my Columbia Viva Tonal 810 reproducer and has made several for my orthophonics. Send him a PM and see what he says!

Mine is "mostly" there, so I used a couple of layers of electrical tape on the tonearm to get a snug fit. Certainly not an ideal solution, but fine for occasional use. Of course a proper replacement would be preferred.

Thank you for your help. I've PM'd Wyatt.

I made mine out of a rubber sleeve grommet (is that a word?) from the hardware store, and lined it with sheet brass: it seems to work well enough. Unfortunately, I do not have the original screw to align it in the tone arm...
