nice job! The bench seat looks great! A layer of burlap over the springs protecting the foam would make the foam last longer tho. On seat back not as important as on the seat itself.

These were kiddie record plàyers for small records. Many like this were built on structure resembling a can for canned ham though not actual can oñ ones I've seen. A round, drum like player was made for playing the 5inch "Little Wonder" records for children. (Because of these kids players, some people think "Litte Wonders", were kids label, like the 1950s Golden plastic 6inch, but only 10% were. The Little Wonder player had lithos of kids at play or Animals, if full color As late as mid-50s, there were acoustic kids players though with plug in electric motors. Modest could play 10inch 78, a few had 45 speed also.😊

I guess in the day they weren't worried about record wearing out because they go buy another one as well as needles this thing looks like it has some form of a little pad that slides on the record itself I imagine over time that would wear the record and my God the way it slams into that poor old needle I mean nowadays no I don't think I'd want to use that but back then when you could get needles and they were dirt cheap or they were cheap enough and records you could just go out and replace with the exact same one from the store if you wore it out yeah cool but I don't know if I would use it nowadays Nate to have

I agree! Oddities like this repeater shouldn’t be used on Pristine records so they can be preserved for future generations. If you look at the record I did use, it’s a mess, but it sounds amazing. 👍

The record wear probably wasn't as big a deal then as it would be now. If you played a record 100 time over with one of these things, you'd probably be ready to part with it anyway.

Forgetting the fact that the needle is meant to be replaced after one play. This is something not everyone knows that early shellac records wear down the steel needle (instead of the groove) used to play them because the shellac contains abrasive grit to shape the needle. The needle should be used once and then thrown away. This needle wear can be seen by rotating the needle under a light source to look for glinting, which indicates groud away metal. Using a needle more than once can and will damage the record groove. This is why needles are bought in quantity and the record player has a place to put the used needles.

Very nice comment. Hopefully someone new to the hobby reads it and understands it so more records can be saved.

Long-playing needles were available throughout the 78 era, made of tungsten, stellite, osmium etc. as opposed to the usual mild steel.

I went through the reproducer and of course a new needle. These old small period records are very cheaply made and it is what it is. I could play a 78 from the 40s or 50s. That sounds great, but I play what would have been available when the machine was new. I agree some are awful!
