Rob, Kimball made a spinet player too. A 37" motor & controls on the bass side. Split lid so you could open just the roll. Electric motor with pneumatics for the keys. Fairly straight forward servicing. If memory serves, a simplex valve design comparable to the Aeolian. Like the Aeolians, be sure to tighten the valve stack and it should run fine.

He explained that not many people tune player pianos and he wanted to know if I could tune it. Having never tuned a player piano, is there a big difference in just tuning it? Am I missing something? Is this more difficult than my inexperience has allowed me to see? :-) I just wanted to post something right away before I called him back.
