Seek Polyphon Auto Stop, Star Wheels, Rollers
By Stuart Horton

I am restoring a Polyphon 15-1/2" upright machine which is missing the
auto stop mechanism.  The drive components are there but no cam follower
linkage (if that is what is used).  The machine is not, and never was,
coin operated.

It has a horizontal stop rod connected to a pull knob on the outside of
the case, but no connection between that and the cam gear.  Any photos
or sketches would help, as I will need to make the new parts from
scratch.

I also require five (5) star wheels for the machine, and a pair of
dishing rollers which mount to the sides of the case.  The type mount
using two screws each into a small square block-type base which would
have the roller mounted at about 2" from the side of the case.
