It's a Standard Model X. Made by Columbia, but marketed as a Standard.

Did all standard machine have the large spindle? It appears this machine does not so much be a replacement.

I don't really know the explanation for that, but others will!

I was exactly in your situation last year with my Standard X. The fine folks in the Yankee Trader section hooked me up with parts.rbjoep wrote:Jerry- Thanks so much that was my hunch! Now to find parts..The hunt is on.

I have a Standard turntable with the correct spindle size if needed. Does your case still have the decal? I think I have an empty cabinet with a Standard decal.

Re: Can anyone help me identify this machine?
The spindle is a straight swap from a Columbia machine with the same configuration. I had a Model A decades ago that I did that to. These days you can get a repro turntable from JAS Antiques with the small spindle and just convert your Standard back and forth that way.

Is the 10" turntable interchangeable between the Standard Type X and Type A?
