I think I remember, in the last year or so, that someone was in need of an 8' 12A turntable. I found mine. Have the tower top and storm stay also.

If anyone needs them, get with me.

The 12A has some larger case components, including the mast pipe. This turntable may work, but I can't confirm. You might have clearance issues with a 12 case?

Dempster #12 turntables will not work for a #12-A. 12-A turntables have a larger opening. The neckpipe is larger. Very few things are the same. 12-A was only made in an 8 ft model i believe, so the tail and bone, and wheel will exchange. Maybe need to later style tailpin also, not positive on this.

MAybe, I don't know. An 8 ft 12-A has a 2 inch neckpipe. Nothing around here is 10 foot, except the attitude of the local wino.
