Question on my Philco 41-295 lamp
#25

interesting discussion on re-stuffing, or not, melting the inside seems like a lot of work, couldn't you just cut it open from end to end, clean out the center, then rap the out side around to new cap, you would have the same effect. one negative point would be if I bought a old radio, pulled the chassis out, and saw all the old caps, I might just order all new cap,before discovering they had been re-stuffed. Just my 2 cents worth. My caps should be here first of the week, I'll decide then If I want to re-stuff or not. The chassis cleaned up pretty good. Still have a few problems with the cabinet so will put the chassis aside for now. at least till the new caps show up.
