Restoring Philco 37-604C
#30

Arran

No, it is some sort of fiber epoxy something. Brown-orange. Same exact shape.
It cannot be rubber: it would impede the shaft rotation. It needs to be solid non-friction material.
I think it is vulcanized fibre.
This is why I chose nylon.

   
   

As for the radio, well, I know the guy well, and I am sure he resold it for someone who told him that, plus it did not even matter, as I would never ever plug in and power up a radio I did not go over myself.
Plus the price was really good. Let's just say, my eye were open on this one.
It's like me buying Jeeps. I am a Jeep guy, and I know they are crappy cars, but I love them. So I fully ingone whatever the salesman tells me, I know it's crap, and I know I want it.

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.
