I found 'em at Dan's Small Parts and Kits:

http://www.danssmallpartsandkits.net/

They're on this page:

http://www.danscloseoutsandspecialdeals.com/oddsandends.html

listed as (note "oscillator" and "Stanwyck" are misspelled):

13-36MH OSCILATOR COIL. MFG.STANDWYCK

He had four left, I bought 'em all.

There's a store in the US that carries tube stuff and replacement coils: www.tubesandmore.com

That might be a great place to start for getting parts for tube theremins.

Thanks jrehwin, mail sent.

djpb_designs: Thank you for the tip. Well actually that was the first store i checked for the coils, but they don't have any of that type we need...

jrehwin doesn't seem to respond for some reasons, so i continued my ever lasting search for the stanwyck osc coil.
Now i just found a small specs sheet of a Miller 6212 horizontal oscillator coil, it says its inductance is tunable between 12-35mH.
There were no drawing so i don't have a clue about the look.
If you have and old miller catalog then open it up and look for the dimensions.

I also found a source where you can obtain it for 8 bucks each. I can't buy from there because the guy said no to international shipping.

What do you think?
Would this work?

I never got the email, so I'm assuming it got filtered (it's a work address). I'm reluctant to put my unfiltered address on a public forum, and I don't have your address. I do still have the coils. I also have a Miller 6212 and a Miller H-111, both of which look like candidates. I'll take some good pictures of them and the Stanwyck coils so people can see.

That would be great!
Looking forward to see them!

I want to use the same coils in each assembly
(pitch and volume)
So, please write an email if you feel you want to part from the two stanwycks.
