Looks nice, neat and tidy. Your fine w/a rubber cord as I'm pretty sure that '36 was the last of the cloth cords. The 37-602 I've been working on has the same HOT spot on the chassis. Same heater circuit. Makes it very uncomfortable to do the rf alignment as the dial is mounted to the cabinet. Ended up having to go back and forth taking the cabinet off and on to get the oscillator to track the dial calibration.  Eventually I figured out that I could place the set on block and lift the cab off/on was flipping it over and handling the hot chassis dropping it into the cab.

I was down in the basement in my dad's

Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
