Seek Gear for Apollo Miniature Airmotor
By D. L. Bullock
I now have a customer with an Apollo that was rebuilt decades ago.
There is a miniature air motor (4 point) that I think is really neat,
considering how hulking wind motors can be. It is so small that
I can hold it in my hand, with fingers bent up around the sides of it.
The governor is 4 inches long by 1.5" x 1.5". Why couldn't they all
be this tiny?
My problem is the little gear -- 1/3 of a pie slice -- with a set
screw for the shaft. It is pot metal and is now unusable. Who has
replacements? I guess I should buy several of them since I have four
Apollos in storage besides this customer's piano. Does Bob Streicher
have these made up?
