Record Magazine almost finished

Masked before a new glossy black paint is added

 New paint and refurbished numbering, the nebering is a little worn and not perfect but for now I let it be as it is.



What is left to be fixed on the magazine is a broken tab on one of the 30 "rocker arms".
I will try to glue it with epoxi, it might work with a little luck .
This is how my quick fix looks like!

  1. Hi Gunnar
    Phil (Rockola 1455) I have new record keepers to replace some faulty ones on my record magazine. Currently small bolts have been installed where the pieces have broken off and look crap but work fine. How did you reattach the record keeper? As they are held by rivets? Any pictures?
    Also is the record magazine on bearings on the hub?
    Thanks
    Phil

  2. Dont have any photo, but I use small (polished) stainless steel screws (M3 K6S A4 ISO 7380) The screw looks almost like a rivet.
