89B, v3 almost there!
#1

Here's my latest bench victim, almost done! See how the bottom shot looks totally re-worked.....NO?? That was the idea! LOL
In the shot of the top, between the transformer and the tuning cap, you can see how I re-stuffed the original filter cans. The top part of the can slips on, then when I tighten the filters down, the re-stuff is invisible. I did these as per the tech tips article about restuffing the old cans on The Philco repair bench.
If you want to try it, follow Chuck's info and VOILA!!
