Crosley 52TA
#12

Other notes:

I had to replace the dial cord. My daughter has a big roll of string she uses to make bracelets. It's the perfect size, it's strong, and it has a sticky/waxy coating. I couldn't have found a better replacement cord if I had searched all week.

I tried cleaning the grill cloth. It helped a little, but it looks like there's wood stain on it in one corner.

Additionally, the dial pointer had disintegrated. For now, a zip tie will have to do until I can come up with a decent looking replacement. I have some ideas, but it'll take a while before making them reality.

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
