It has a brass mandrel, I used to have the original carriage however it was very rusty where the half nut was, Thinking back it was a dumb mistake, I traded it for a good one that had clips, I think the original had two screw holes for the clips instead of four, the original carriage was a weighted half nut, the one I have is the spring kind. It has an Automatic reproducer. I might put it back to the weighted kind, If I could ever find one. It is a solid top work, not with the hole in the center, however the last patent date is 1893, and it has a cast iron lower pulley, and the on off, pushes the yoke rather than having its own pad, it also has the holder for the lift lever casting in the bed plate. _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
