A 1 5 ohm magnetic cutting head was purchased and fitted to the overhead lead screw as pictured in Fig. 3. An amplifier was built especially to fit my particular requirements for recording and playback presentation. However, I once had occasion to use my house radio in place of the amplifier when the latter was in need of repair, and with very successful results. So it can be seen that a specially built amplifier is not absolutely essential where a good radio is available for amplification purposes. Any radio electrician can make the necessary wiring changes at small cost. I built the recording and playback arms to meet my particular requirements. These are illustrated in sketch No. 2 herewith. The contact and swing pins of both the playback and cutting head arms are regular phone plugs attached to the arm bases. The two wires leading to the cutting head and to the crystal pickup are attached directly to the plugs. A single phone jack that receives the plugs is mounted under base of the turntable and at such a height as to allow the arms to clear the turntable and discs. Wires leading from the jack contacts lead to a double-pole, doublethrow switch and thence to the amplifier for either recording or reproduction. This phone plug and jack method of attachment obviates necessity of having both playback and cutting head arms on top of turntable at the same time. They are instantly detachable and interchangeable. Full floating pick-up arm is effected by a hinge-joint just back of the crystal which provides a minimum of weight upon the needle. Close observation of Fig. 2 will reveal that an auxiliary motor has been added to the projector. This is a 1 /40 H. P. motor of constant speed and unaffected by current fluctuations. It is belted directly to the regular projector motor as shown in sketch No. 1, and so wired as to start simultaneously with it. From behind the power plug-in socket (a) shown in Fig. 6, the two poles are tapped and lead to outlet (b) where the plug of the auxiliary motor is inserted. Current, therefore, is transmitted to the main and auxiliary motor simultaneously at the throw of the switch. This auxiliary furnishes the necessary added power to drive both projector and turntable smoothly. Since this motor has more driving power than is actually required to operate the projector, it will drive the projector at constant speed from the instant the rated R.P.M. is attained by the motor. This leaves the operator free for other details that must be watched during recording. Also, constant, unfaltering speed permits music to be included in the recording without injecting irritating "wows" that otherwise would occur from fluctuating speed. Then, in projecting a synchronized picture, a more professional effect is created in that the film and recording may be started simultaneously by a mere snap of a switch. It is a genuine pleasure to be able to do this, to sit in the audience without a care while a 400 foot reel of film is screened with synchronized sound, music and dialog. In planning to couple the auxiliary motor to the projector, it became necessary to determine size of pulley required to turn the projector at exactly 16 F.P.S. without the power rheostat turned on. Size of pulley was eventually determined thus: Auxiliary motor was mounted temporarily beside projector. A "V" channel was cut in the knob extending from the pulley shaft on the regular projector motor. This became the pulley over which the belt from the auxiliary motor would run. Then by winding scotch tape around the auxiliary motor shaft, a temporary pulley was built up until it was about one-half inch in diameter. The belt was then placed over this and the motor started. A check was made to determine how many seconds were required for 80 frames of film to run through the projector powered by the auxiliary motor. Additional tape was wound to build up diameter of the temporary pulley until 80 frames of film would pass through the projector in exactly five seconds, or 16 frames per second. Diameter of the temporary pulley of wound tape was measured and a regular "V" drive pulley of corresponding diameter fitted to the motor. The motor was now ready to be mounted permanently on the projector and this was done by the means of a hinge and a turnbuckle as illustrated in sketch No. 1. The turnbuckle serves to apply the right amount of tension on the belt for efficient operation. By mounting motor on the hinge, it becomes instantly demountable by removing the hinge pin, allowing projector to be used for normal silent projection, and to permit placing it in carrying case. Vibration was perhaps the biggest bugaboo I had to overcome.
