Music Boxes (Cylinder & Disc)
 
 
 
Stella Music Box
These Images were taken of a Stella Music Box recently worked on. The first three were made of the as found mechanism. The box was found to have two different broken mainsprings, one which had been installed backward anf the dampers were found laying in many directions.

 

 

These Dampers were jamed up in the star wheels and would not have allowed the disc to play even if the springs were good.

The image to the left shows the boxes speed govenor. It too was broken. The fingers that held the friction pads to the

wheel were broken and and would not hold the pads
