I don't think it would have worked either. I think thayers are over-rated and not very fast.
Miraphone has a new rotor that completely removes so you can just lift the whole rotor out and I have played an oval that had these rotors and it played very well and was in tune as well too. they were very fast also.
Thayers can be a pain and can be finicky.
