I have been a lurker for a while. I thought I would finally post. I got my start in taking old ,dead TVs apart as a kid. I got to where I I got a few going. I would love to have one of the old metal chassis type Zeniths I got going back then.

Anyway I continued, got my education in electronics then went into computers. Now I am getting to enjoy life some after many years of being so busy. So I decided to redo my workshop and turn it into a working museum if you will. I wanted to set it up to look like something from the 50s or 60s. I have a bunch of old magazines, NRI manuals, Photofacts flyers,etc. that I got ideas for my workbench and shop. It's sort of like paying homage to to all the TV guys back when I was a kid who helped me back then.I added a few things like a digital meter,some newer tools and computer to help me even though they weren't in shops then.

I wasn't sure if I could post a link to another site but I have a garage site my shop is at during the redo of it. If your interested let me know and I can send it to you. If it is ok to post the link and you want to see it let me know and I can post it. The main thing I need to do to my shop is to rebuild a few items like a 40s O scope and I also want to find a TV shop sign that was outside the store. I have been looking somewhat but no luck as of yet. Well that is a little about me.
