I've wanted to own a jukebox for years, and I'm finally looking at a Rock-Ola 470 that needs some restoration. I have a question about the carousel on this model (and likely similar models). There's a metal strip along the bottom of the carousel. I think it stops the records from falling out the bottom, because it doesn't look like they're held in otherwise. Is this correct? Does the strip cause any noticeable damage to the records as they slide along it? Maybe not the first time, but after weeks/months/years has anyone noticed the edges eroding? Here is a video of the model in action. Rock-Ola 470 Jukebox

Hi, I have never known of any problems caused by that stainless steel record retainer--but by the same token, I have always cleaned, and coated that strip with food grade silicon. By the way--your video disappointed me--LOVE Chubby Checker, and was devastated when you "edited it" !-LOL- BTW--Please look at our "posting rules" in the "user introductions section, and comply with them. Thanks, Ron Rich Board monitor
