BOL and Crystal Phono Cartridges rebuilding lessons.
#1

I had at one time a complete How-To available elsewhere (now defunct website) and thought this was THE place to host the complete How-To about crystal cartriges rebuilding.

I am also in the process of rebuilding a BOL cartridge (looooong due work) for a verrrrry nice and patient gentleman and thought it might be interesting to some on a How-to, so my offer to Ron for sharing my findings and steps by steps instructions right here. Ron said "go for it" so here I am.

It will most certainly take some time to complete the BOL How-to as I have a busy schedule but I will post the info as it is available.

The first step will be to post the complete How-To for crystal cartridges which will be done in the next few dayz.

Hope this information to be of help to other collectors/restorers.

There will be a short update on or about next monday (if I didn't get sick of eating too much chocolate).

I just bought a new digital video camera so I could create better videos and pictures. Now that I am setup, I'll be able to deliver.
