Philco 16B restoration
#46

Arran

No, I have never rewound a shadograph. I would have to come up with some mechanical contraption as to do it manually is totally not worth the 50 bucks I paid for the one I asked Alabama Dave to do. It was for the Philco 18 and it was 3 years ago.
I got lucky with 118 I fixed a couple of months ago, the shadow graph worked.

Well, I have two things magnetic to do: the speaker to re-cone and the shadograph.

I am chugging along with the recapping, it is all screwed up with the tubular caps all over the place plus discrepancies with the schematic made while someone repaired it in the very remote past.
The major nasty left is the capacitor can which is a lot like the 20's and that was a pain every time.

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.
