I'm trying to buy a part he doesn't have listed on his eBay store, but I do not have his business card, he can't tell me his email because of eBay moderation. Anyone who has done business before, would y'all happen to have his email address?

I had just fixed the motor on my VV 2-55 and now I gotta work on the reproduction.

I'm going to order one of those reproduction plastic arm brackets because the original decided to shatter like glass when I was screwing the motor in.

I already bought a reproduction back, but it didn't come with the O ring thing that has the threading. The old one is in 5 pieces because I'm starting to realize pot metal is easy to work with.

Thank you

I was taking a look inside because it suddenly started running rough and it had a clicking sound, I noticed it was the fiber clicking against the governor spindle.

The governor screw was loose and the mainspring decided to tasmanian devil.

Now the gear is all distorted and it's practically seized.

I saw one on thephonographshop.com but I really don't wanna pay $45 for a gear that I could either get custom made or printed

I will send pictures if requested

It is a single spring motor
