So I got this set of testers from our own Ron at K-town.
I was going to make 1 set but figured they are both all there so why not make 2?
One even has a real nice 33 Philco globe in it. I will need to find 2 Philco batteries to go inside for OCD reasons but I have seen people make them so I will do that if I cant get originals. One is a bit worse for wear but glue, clamps and Tolex will do the trick. I have Terry to help with the Tolex application since he is a master leather worker.

I have dismantled one completely and left the other whole. I may need to reference it on rebuild of the other one.

Here they are!

I think the tolex was the only think holding this cabinet together,
I removed all the Tolex and hardware and it collapsed. 
Good for me since now I know what joints need glue... (all of them)

I need to get new butterfly rivets, Tolex, rust dissolver, Spray glue, and something else?? Oh, My head examined 
The other cabinet came out great with spray glue and a good cleaning and polish.

Nice to see someone has equipment older than mine!

It fell to pieces but I reattached all the sides after soaking them and flattening them. First the 4 sides and now the bottom is gluing.


 Still havent ordered the tolex.....

Nice job so far! So how many clamps do you own???

Terry

Well, Terry, this is a mighty personal question you are asking. It is between the man and his clamps!

[Radioroslyn]

I was just trying to find if he hoards those too!!!!

I have about 30 but not the big ones
They are about $45.00 a piece for good ones. Harbor Freight has them but they are SH its mostly because a clamp shoould clamp and they just break when you try to tighten them..
Stoopit things...
