Seek Parts for Aeolian Push-up Pianola
By Jim Spriggs

Hello, this is my first posting having only registered onto the MMD in
the last few weeks, and am enjoying reading the daily correspondence.
I'm based in the north of the UK, and have a circa 1905 58/65-note
Orchestrelle push-up player which is the subject of my fist attempt
at a restoration.

What I am missing is the height adjustment crank, and the two(?) top
spindle adapters for the narrower 58-note rolls.  The chances of
finding these as spares are remote, so can anyone provide me with
technical drawings for these bits so I can get them made up?

Also, in late March I'll be visiting San Diego, California, and would
love to meet people with player piano interests in the area.  Please
email me!

Jim Spriggs
