1929 Philco 95 Dial cable guide?
#4

Dang it !!!! I've got to get A life!!!!!!!

They are a bit of a pita. Since you have the old ones measure them. If I remember correctly they are the same length. I used some steel stranded wire that is used for hanging pictures. Make a loop at both end at the measure length. I don't think you can install it with removing the cap rotor to gain access to the rear worm. It's been a number of years ago when I did the last one. Attach the wire to the rear worm peg and wind it on to the worm so that there just enough wire left to attach the wire and tension spring to the dial drum.
Reinstall the the cap rotor and worm assembly with out losing tension on the rear wire. This is the pita part!!!
Once you get that back together attach the front wire and spring to the drum. Wrap front wire onto the front worm and hook the loop over the peg.

GL and let me know if you made up any new words while preforming this task.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
