Hello,

I'm on a quest for a motor for the 35012, and I thought this would be the best place to start. The spindle siezed up and made the windings heat up-short out. I don't really have the time to count the turns and rewind it (and the customer doesn't have the money to pay for the time), sooo...

I had a very nice elderly couple call me about repairing it (I get the weird stuff from all around my area), you know, the usual sad story that I just can't ignore. Wife going blind, only wants to play the Optigan, they don't have any money, all the basic makings of a tear-jerker. Any ideas? I'd appreciate any help from anyone.

Thanks in advance!

OK, never mind. Motor re-wound, greased and repacked. Working like a champ. Just wasted 3 hours of a Saturday night.

I would have thought that the Optigan community would have been a little more "tight." Hmm.
