I am pulling apart the 45 chassis and have a few questions.
The coils are chewed beyond repair so I will need new ones. I think the vertical one can be saved and just rewound.
1. Do they make special ones? it has 4 prongs coming off of it so can I just buy a 4 prong tube?
2. Can I make a new tube and add the prongs?
Everything else can be repaired except this so I want to have the parts needed for the restoration.
I took off what I needed to to get the chassis clean and am going to recap today.
Times I have been electrocuted in 2021
