1946 Electro Lap Steel Tuners
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2011 12:52 pm
I just bought a very nice black on black Electro Lap Steel. The only thing to do on it is get the tuners working a little better. It's got a couple of bent ones, and one that takes a wee bit of play before it meshes and moves the shaft.
These are the individual tuners now, not the strip.
I'm interested in knowing if anyone can 're-manufacture' or restore these, by perhaps replacing the cogs and bending the bent ones straight. There ARE NO tuners I can find that have the same config - 7/32nds shaft, drill holes on 15/16ths.....
Anyone have a good contact or idea?
