It  sames the veneer  on side is in bad repair ( complete , but unsticked , I am waiting confirmation ) , but If necessary , I have possibility to restik it properly .  Icon_wink

The vendor says also the turn table disappeared.    Icon_sad 

Have you some information about this turntable ? photo ??

In all honesty I don't speak French, but I have enough common sense and understanding of Spanish and some French (and Latin) to make Google sound nicer than it usually does Icon_smile
My native is Russian, English I learned. (English is 70% French too!) Icon_smile

At least when I looked at Exupery's La Petite Prince, It was quite understandable. I even remembered some passages quite easily, like the one about the Mushroom.

When I met you, dear. I was inspired. I wanted to say so much.....so many....words. Icon_lol I wanted to shout "stop putting all those chassis in my car!!!", but out came only unintelligible mooing. Then I decided I was gonna learn it. Icon_lol

Some day, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift

Russian for "furniture" - "мебель" (meh-behl'). The origin is French. Icon_smile
Actually, we have lots of French words.

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM
