you all probably dont care but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me.
@Zyaire Remington i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
No tungsten in or on most needles. Some are chrome or nickel plated to prevent rust. Even with plating, The steel itself wears down as the record plays, and no longer has a proper point, which is why it needs replacing.
What a super demo, thank you, I have just purchased a 123a version and now looking to get this repaired and serviced. Do such places still exist or are repairs now just enthusiast? Thanks
Hi i have this style of gramphone and am trying to figure out how to repair it. Currently with out the turn table on it will wind but wont release. WHen i take the cover off and reveal the motor i can see the winder is connected to a ratchet style mechanism with a lock on it. I'm just not sure what is meant to release the ratchet so it spins?
My understanding - and I no longer have this particular machine - is that the motors have no brake. They are only kept from running down by the friction of the stop lever. This being so, if you get no movement even when the turntable is removed, either the spring is set in solidified grease, or the spring has been allowed to run down to nothing and has become detached. Where springs are concerned, I would suggest getting a skilled mechanic to inspect and repair.
@@seangabbvideo Thank you so much for the fast reply! Would it be possible if i could send you a few pictures or even a video so i can better describe the problem, I am extremely knew to the world of gramophones so my terminology might not be correct.
@@1994WogBoy I am not an expert on springs and their housings. I suggest you should look up John Sleep in Cornwall. He knows everything about gramophones. I will only advise you not to try taking the spring out by yourself. That can be very dangerous.
@@seangabbvideo Thanks so much sean! I am currently trawling through Johns site. After taking the gear cover off it seems your theory of solidified grease may be the problem, if only i could post pictures. Compared to new grease this would be decades old. Again thanks for the information, you're going to make a special someone very happy. Regards
@@louisewilliams1258 I found how to service these spring motors. There is a drift pin that needs to be removed on the clutch spring on the inside. It's a pain if they are ossified to the shaft. Care has to be taken while winding these. Don't want to break a spring in these phonographs.
Technically speaking , its not a clockwork motor its a spring driven motor the latter requires a pendulum ,and I don't think there's on in side the gramophone
Thank you for the great video and demonstration. I just bought this model off eBay and now I will know how to use it properly when it arrives!

@Zyaire Remington It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
@Justus Andre glad I could help :)
Thanks for the demo! We got it working on the first try!
vey well presented and narrate, great video

Who is the baritone? Very nice - not used to hearing it in English.

Look up John Sleep. He lives in Cornwall and does a good job of fixing gramophones.

I have one of this in my house, someone knows how open that and fix the problems? Because its very old, and its broken…
I wasn't able to make out the USB... or does it have Wifi?
It runs of magic.
that's probably because of the Mozart Music.
Oh very good chaps.
How do you remove the crank on those
Why would you want to remove the crank? I believe many recess right into the case. You may want to search those out??

Nice!!!

It’s a clockwork motor. A winding clock is run by spring. Even your small automatic watch.
A great sounding gramophone & record.
Звук хороший!
I just bought one of these and in the sound box there is a paper? I dont know if i bought it broken
Does it play records?
Bought one but the sound is bad, looks diaphragm change needed...is not in good conditions (bendings, dents, not regular)
Can we buy this brand new
I've never heard this in English!
does it have a volume control ?
No, my grandfather used to muffled it with socks. Hence the saying..
Can you play "modern" LP vinyl records with this gramophone?
Only if you want to throw them away afterwards
The needle kills them, right?
Rips them apart. Also, an old gramophone can't do 33.33rpm
No. You would get some sound but the literally pointed bit of metal (needle) would destroy your LP.
Yes they can Most have a variable speed slider in the corner.
what is its current value?
I sold this for £50
@@seangabbvideo I cant believe they are so cheap!!!!
Then start buying the records....that's when it starts getting expensive.
Change the needle after playing every record????
Seriously?
Yes, seriously. This is 120 year old technology. Needles came in packets of 100 for pennies.
not posh enough to watch this by his tone
