Found! : Reproduction Aluminum Victor Elbows

Post by Jerry B. »

I am looking for a few aluminum Victor elbows that came out in the eighties. I have some project horns that I intend to make and could use a few. I don't care about the size. I'd like to find Victor I, II, and III sizes. Hint... Gourd-A-Horns are going Gramophone. :)

Thanks, Jerry B.

Thanks Forum members. I've located one of each size.

If your project is to make gourd-a-horns why not have a couple original elbows scanned and then you could have as many as you want 3D printed.

Does anyone have any idea about the cost of 3-D printed ones? How about strength? My thought was to cut a hole in the small end of the gourd and pass the aluminum elbow through the gourd, excuse me, the horn, and epoxy it in place. When finished you wouldn't see much of the elbow.

My hope was to reach out to collectors that might have an old unused aluminum elbow that will never be used on a traditional Victor restoration.
