Hello fellow EM people,

Last night I finally got to the root of my problem with one of the alternating features of my Zaccaria Moon Flight. The problem is up in the head with the 1k reel. Basically what I was wondering for all the Williams EM owners out there is that if their reels too have a hole in the bakelite trace of the drum unit. These have the early 70s style score reels or the larger ones. If so then I think the problem is in the finger. This brings me to my last question, can you get a new finger? Thanks in advance for the help!

If someone has one for sale just swap out the bad piece or maybe repair it? Depends? (photo)
You can also swap the part with one from a higher sore reel in the meantime to at least play it.

These machines are built to last, in they are not broken, chances are you will be able to recover them. Looking forward to your pic.
