The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hello. Looking to complete my machine. Know it will be a tough time finding original parts, so reproduction parts are o.k. Need the governor assembly, glass tube, and resonator piece that sits on top wooden post. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Years ago, when I was restoring an Echophone, I purchased several 12" lengths of 5mil and 6mil glass tubing.
You heat these with a propane torch to create the bends and the tip that functions as the stylus.
Please see the attached photo. I don't remember which size I ended up using.
If you would be interested in a couple pieces of each size, feel free to contact me by e-mail.

Regards,
