Leather Supply House
from Ron Schmuck
Hello Everyone, Well first, a big thanks to everyone who responded to my request for kid skin drum head replacements. The Deagan carillon sure sounds like a Schulmerich carillon, maybe the Coronation model from the 1950's. Anyway, we fix 'em and can supply all of the tubes (new). Schulmerich probabl...

Rebuilding My Player Piano Myself
from Tom Dawson
•Happy New Year to All ! I want to thank Denny Thomas for the kind words [991226 MMD] but I do want to point out that the credit for his success goes to him. A Schultz action is really not for a beginner, but he has done a fantastic job. I am still not sure that player restorations are for just ever...

Player Action in Steinbach Piano
from Diane deTar
•I would like to take a guess at the mystery player action [000915 MMD]. With the description provided it sounds to me like a Schultz. The "tracking mechanism" tracks the spool ends, as opposed to the edge of the roll, and it sits in the top of the spool box. It has round metal tracking "ears" on th...

Seek Player Carillon Systems and Music Rolls
from Chris Riedl
•Hello everyone! I was curious if there was anyone else that reads the MMDigest that has an interest in carillon systems, such as those made by Schulmerich, Verdin, Mass-Rowe, etc. Also, I am always searching for rolls for these systems (or I am glad to find homes for the systems themselves) as they...

Sealing Kangaroo Skin
from Al Pebworth
•Tim Gautreaux asked about sealing thin kangaroo skin. Personally, I would not normally use skin that thin (but it works great for the internal pneumatics on a Schultz), but if I did it could be sealed very easily using Dow-Corning 3140 Flowable Silicone, which is a non-corrosive silicone sealer int...

Seek Carillon Mover, Florida to Ohio
from Chris Riedl
•Greetings, I have posted a few times before on MMD concerning my interest in electromechanical carillons, but I am now presented with a problem that I have not encountered before.

Converting Recordo to Duo-Art
from Bruce Grimes
•Yes, I've converted Recordo to Duo-Art. It sounded better than I ex- pected. The piano was a Schultz Marionette, for a customer moving to Florida who had a Steinway OR, which at 6'6" was too big, and a big col- lection of rolls he liked. I published the schematic about a decade ago in the AMICA Bul...

Angelus Player Piano Disassembly
from Steve Bentley
•Luke, your piano description brings both good news and bad news. Werner used Schultz player actions. They are unique to themselves, and the bottom bellows unit is not compatible with others, as there are controlling components mounted on the pump boards. If your upper stack still plays, that's grea...

•Dear friends of the pianola, I just bought a set of piano rolls of Imperial, Orchestrelle, Odeola and other well-known brands.
