Nice. Thanks Kent & everyone for all their work on this. You’ll likely want to take a picture of the permanent marking on the back of the cone as well.
Also I can’t remember, but is there a speed control on that leslie..? Some were dual-speed, but a variac or something similar might allow for a full range of speeds
Once we got the ramp a couple weeks ago, I finally moved it up to the stage where it belongs. It could use some step-down casters affixed so it can be more easily rolled to and from the wing at stage-left, where it should probably live when not in active use.

i need the size of the driver (15"? 12"?) and the type of edge. a pic
of the edge would be good. and if there are any numbers or anything
printed on the cone anywhere...
