Tangley Calliope Player Parts
By Don Teach

We are still working on having patterns made for zinc die-cast
Tangley valves.  So far the response from MMDers has been dismal.
Please ask around and see if any of your friends might want a few
spares for the tool box.

The original valves were a soft pot-metal material.  I am hoping to
make these in zinc die-cast for about $5.00 each if I can get enough
people to buy some.  This is a one-time run of the original 1920s
style valves that have not been produced since they were manufactured.
These are for the original style Tangley calliope and not for the Miner
Tangley calliope of today.  Don't wish you had joined in this venture
down the road and kick yourself.
