This crank came on a late model Victor II that I just bought. It actually works on this machine, but I don't think that it's a Victor crank, unless they were using a style that I'm not familiar with. The part the goes into the machine is 3 ¼." It's threaded. Does anyone know what machine this was made for?
Thanks.
What is this crank?

Most likely a music box crank.

I agree, I believe that I have seen that "diamond" design crank shaft on a music box, but not sure which one...JerryVan wrote:Most likely a music box crank.
