From: "Roberto Rovira" <rovatt@speedy.com.ar> Reply-To: pianotech@ptg.org Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2001 10:50:19 -0600 To: <pianotech@ptg.org> Subject: Angelus- Help wanted For everyone, Hi, again, after a while.Some people of the list knows me because I use to post to the list some time ago. Any way, every day I give an overwiew to the topics I found interestings to me on the list. Posting today have a reason. A customer bought an "Angelus"autoplaying device (as I think it would be called). It is very old, I guess of the beginning of 20 century.It is in a very good shape. It reproduce music very well that could be heard by the set of reeds it have. But, it would be not any surprise, it may be happen that some valve, bellow fabric(?) or joint make loose vaccum and it can't play a piano keyboard. I looked that the valves(two strips of skin) of both pedal-bellows were in not good condition and now I am replacing them. I would like if anyone on the list that may have experience with this kind of apparatus, could get in touch with me to advice me to do the best way. I also would appreciate any graphics or diagrams anyone could find or any site in internet where I would get information of this topic.The only thing it seems to be lost is something that must be attached to the pedal levers to make possible the contact with the piano pedals.Obviously I need information to make the replacement Thank you in advance. Happy to be here again . Roberto Rovira Buenos Aires Argentina ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
