A brief history of the ""Forever""
replacement idler wheel
for RCA Victor ""45"" only Record Players & Phonographs.

 

 

My family has a connection to the aviation
industry that starts
in the 1930's with my grandfather who was an ""estimator"" for
aircraft manufacturers . No computers back then, all done by ""hand""

Both of my brother-in-laws were military
pilots who later flew for
many years with the airlines.

The father of my best friend in college
was a master machinist who
worked for Hughes Aircraft Company in Culver City, California.

My next door neighbor owned an FBO with
a Beechcraft franchise.

My daughter started out as a private pilot,
then instrument rated,
then a CFI, then a CFI instrument rated, until now she flies""Captain""
with a major US airline.

So, there was always someone who knew
someone in the aviation industry.

In the 1990's when I needed dependable
replacement idler wheels for my
collection of RCA Victor ""45"" record players, it was my good fortune
to have an extremely experienced aviation engineer design the identical
item I still share with other enthusiasts today. It was no surprise that
the
original engineering specified high-quality aluminum and o-rings as used
for aircraft design. In addition, an ""Oilite"" oil-impregnated
main bearing
was included in the design.

I still retain the original drawings,
shown here blurred for obvious reasons.

Yes, over the years this design has been
""reversed"" engineered using different,
mostly inferior materials, but never correctly as only I have the original
drawings.

At the time ""naysayers"" who
were mostly individuals who tried to ""re-rubber""
40 year old idlers with worn out center holes said: ""Oh, that will
never work,
not enough rubber, not enough contact. Yes, they were quite ""WRONG""
We have made and sold thousands of our ""Forever"" idler wheels

over the last 30 years."
nd better top end. It comes with 4 different screws, 2 washers and 2
nuts. All made from stainless steel.

The weight with the wires is approx 10 grams.
Almost the same weight as the original Magnesium TP 60 headshell.

Please note, the
original TP 60 plastic tool does NOT work with our new TP 60 headshell.
Achtung, unser neues Headshell funktioniert NICHT
mit dem original Plastik Überhang Tool.
