Iv seen the felt on other victor machines with felt on them too, I would assume it is correct on that basis. John Robles

This one has strips of felt-like material around the underside perimeter of the motorboard. Should they be there? The cabinet has countersunk areas where the mounting screws go into the case. I imagine the vibration damping material was there. Felt or rubber? Oh, other questions. Should the screws holding the support arm to the case be bright finish or blackened? Is the brake exactly the same as on other P machines. This one had a rubber washer mounted with an ugly screw and bolt fastening. Thanks! _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
