Motorhead Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 More a Godet/Meybauer core with a textbook AWS reverse.....but don't ask me why.... Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn R Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Definately different core details. Does look quite Godet. AWS back is absolutely spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike K Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 The frames look like a total mismatch. I'd suggest, without seeing some edge shots, a put-together from original components. Regards Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taurus454 Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Looks like a new type, I am going to call it "FrankenEK"! Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekhunter Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) Looks like a new type, I am going to call it "FrankenEK"! Tom I like that name! Put together, but put together when is the question? Would love some side photos to see any possible sign of new solder, as the frames appear to not line up very well, but hard to tell. I suspect, at least from what I can see from the photos, that this so called FrankenEk was put together a long long time ago, but side photos would be nice.

Motorhead Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Well,you have to wait for more pics-I'm in Teheran at the moment and won't return to my iron crosses breeding and care station until the first or second week in July! Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streptile Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 3nd core type EK 1 AWS Hi Tom, AWS already has 3 known cores. Mike, I have one of these Pillowbacks with frames that are similarly offset, and I've seen another. I don't think this one was a put-together, but rather a good AWS with (for some reason) a Godet-style core. Why? Who knows -- but core swapping was (as you well know) epidemic with 1914 EKs.
