Model 96 Restoration
#5

That's kind of what I figured.   Don't flex it too much and the insulation will be there.  It shouldn't be a problem.  I have the main cap can disconnected an out without moving the wires a lot.  It shouldn't much of a problem to re-connect..

Most of the dog bone resistors are a bit over spec value. One is open.  I think I will hide a  resistor under the dog bone in parallel to bring the resistors within range. They are small enough that they should not be readily seen hiding behind the original.  With a cursory glance from above, it will all look original.   I really don't want to go the painted plastic tube with a new resistor inside route.   Do these old resistors vary much in resistance with temperature?  I would think it is a slow degradation of value over a great deal of time.  My observation is that they usually increase in resistance. Thus a calculated parallel resistor would bring things into design specs.
