Audiomeca Romance

Hello dear Audiogon forum dwellers,

I have an Audiomeca Romance turntable. The tip of the piece which is in the sleeve of the platter is extremely damaged(do not ask how :). I think because of this the platter is now destabilized and is oscillating badly. I hopelessly need the measurements of this piece. Indeed the length is enough, I think.

The piece I refer to can be seen on the diagram of the Audiomeca Bella turntable below. It is just above the heart.

I tried to contact Mr. Pierre Lurne with no success.

Any help is extremely appreciated.

Thanks.

I owned the Audomeca J1. There is a carmic ball fastened
in the platter. The top of the axle had a kind of hole which centered the 'point' of gravity for the platter. Your machinst need to see and measure exactly the axle by
someone who owns the Romance. With his lathe he should be able to produce the same axle from (hardened) steel. You will also need some grease because you can't use oil for
this bearing.
