Are there any places that sell new springs? I have looked around and cant find any. I would like to try making a gramophone, including the motor, from scratch but I can't really make a specially designed power spring

Sometime between 1935-1936, wood motorboard starts in 1935, and the " bullets" on the turntable vanish around 1936, and the record tray itself vanishes at the start of the war, but was a flat bottom tray by that point.

Have you checked the speed? Weak mainsprings or a lack of maintenance on the motor can cause the turntable speed to fluctuate up or down a few rpm . Speed is checked with a stroboscope disc, or an app on your smartphone. Sometimes there can be reproducer issues like damaged needlebar, or loose needlebar bearing caps, even holes eaten in the aluminum diaphragm. I would start with lubricating the motor and then checking the speed.

@@Rockisland1903 thank you very much for this info! Speed was inconsistent per strobe disc. If I can get nearly two full plays off a single winding would that that indicate that spring was not weak?

@@joenelson9489 I haven't personally repaired these gramophones, but if they're anything like motion picture cameras from the era it may be old grease. It will for hard, dry clumps and cause the machine to not be able to run smoothly.
