My little PT-93 is finished - OldRestorer - 10-02-2015

I finally finished my PT-93!
Restored chassis with every cap removed at terminals and replaced with tubing. Not much harder and loos a lot better and safer.
Made a new dial cover mold and dial cover. Cleaned the radio cabinet with GoJo and done!

I really like the styling of it.

It has a handle so send it to Sam, he can use it as a portable with a 100' extension cord Icon_e_wink 

Seriously, that is a nice looking radio.  Now don't be getting the big head just cause you finally learnt how to use tubing Icon_mrgreen

How do you make the dial lens with the mold?

This is an older post but It played real well. Even after I recapped it, Icon_lol
It is on a shelf in the Library now and I have not played it in months.. Icon_sad

I do like to look at it though... I should pull it down and play it for a while instead of the PT-69
