edison horizontal reproducer carriage reducing ring

[herrickpickups]

Does anyone please have a dimensioned drawing of this component please ? to enable the use of a "C" reproducer in the larger horizontal reproducer carriage ?

Harrick,

I know of no original or recent fabrication drawings for the reproducer ring. Many original rings were cast in zinc alloy (potmetal) and some of these are swollen so be careful measuring one of these if you are creating your own drawings.

Unless you just want a fun machine shop project, reproduction rings are readily available at minimal cost from the Phonograph Shop.

I made this drawing from a reducer ring on one of my machines. It's most likely a reproduction, but a pretty nice one. The dimensions are taken directly off of the part. If I were going to make one, I'd increase the .425 overall length to maybe .475 and increase the ID flange width to .175. It would make locating the setscrew a lot easier.

Bob,

You have made my day! I owe thanks to Mr. Spadafore, my high school drafting teacher.

You're very welcome!

Ha! One of my representation systems teachers was Mr. Espadas... Was he an extracorporeal incarnation of the same Mr. Spadafore? It was in Madrid, Civil Engineers school, 1989-1990...

Jerry, Great work on the fabrication drawing!

Harrick, What is your next step? Are you planning on producing these adapter rings or just making one for yourself?
