Replicating Wurlitzer Spool Frame Drive Wheels
By Jack M. Conway

>> Does anyone have the proper dimensions for the leather drive wheels
>> or a style 150 Wurlitzer roll frame?  This is a late (1924) frame.
>> Bob Stewart


Hi Group, The leather drive wheel on my 146A 150 roll frame measures
3.108 inches.  I would be interested in knowing how you do it.  My
Wurlitzer BX drive wheel is so worn I have only one tempo if I also
want to have rewind.  It is much smaller than the 150 drive.  It
currently measures 2.623 inches.
