Philco Model 95
#13

Ok I'll admit it I didn't follow Chuck's sage advice. Being cheap and in a hurry I went over the the local Lowes and picked up 2 springs and small spool of steel picture hanging wire. Each cord is 16" loop to loop so out came the flux and solder 10mins later I had two dial cord ready to go on. After figuring out what holes where for what I started to install them. Back one goes on first wind it up onto the spool. Drop the rotor assembly and shaft assembly. Pull the front cord tight a wind it onto the front spool. Hook the loop onto the peg and that was it. I played with it for about a hour getting it together.
The tuning condenser is back together but still need to fabricate the two end bearing caps. Someone took them off and lost them for me when they tried to restring it.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
