Philco 16B restoration
#27

The filter choke repair continues:

Meanwhile went to Hobby lobby and bought fabric eyelet fasteners for fabric.
There are similar ones for leather, but the fabric ones are preferable as the barrel at the end is already scored to form petals, while the leather ones are not and also are thicker (or so I think).

I wish they sold just a tad larger size than 5/32 as the next one up is much larger, and would not fit in the hole in my choke platform. I was in doubt when buying it and even thought they would be too small and not long enough, but.....



   
   
   
   


....as you can see they fit just fine. And the screw although very close, still goes through nicely. In fact if they had brass (not bright shiny golden one) it would look exactly as it was before.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
