Does anybody have a Columbia BQ cylinder machine? That's the machine that is a rear mount cylinder with a horizontal carriage. I would like to see a picture of the carriage, reproducer, and connector from the arm to the reproducer. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Marcel,
Thank you for the picture. Is there any gold striping on the carriage? Last Sunday, I was at a swap meet and I picked up a BQ mechanism with reproducer for $50,00. It is geared for 2/4 min. This will be a worthwhile project to get the case and other parts to restore this machine.

Hi
Yes it does have some gold stripe on the carriage, looks like a rectangle. I sold that machine some time a go so I can't give you details. Here is another picture.
