Turntable reflocking
#1

The phonograph on my 47-1230 was in bad shape. At least on top. The base was rusted and half of the flocking was missing from the turntable. So, I took it upon myself to become a "flocker" :-) I found the attached bottle of brown flocking online (eBay), but I suspect any craft store should be able to get it (like Hobby Lobby). The jar is very small, about the size of a prescription bottle, but it should be just enough for the small turntables used on the 1946-48 automatic record changers. For a larger turntable, I would recommed getting 2 bottles. Any spray adhesive will work for the flocking. I used 3M Super 77 (as we use this where I work so I "borrowed" a can :-) )    

Here's how the finished phonograph looks after repainting and reflocking:
