I have a question along this line...I have an Eastman 615 and it comes with reverse tuners (tune sharp the opposite of my Flatiron and Weber). I have looked at them and wondered if the plates could be flipped, the tuners disassembled (long shafts currently at the top/short at the bottom with grars on the bottom) and then reassembled to tune like modern models.
I originally thought that it was assembled wrong at the factory but after posting a thread on the cafe found out that Eastman does this on their mandolins and that it is the old traditional design. Not really a big deal but wondering if this could be done.
