Here is a picture of me sitting at the repair bench. Im about half way trough the restoration at this point. I started recapping the TV at 7pm last night. I stayed up working on it untill 2 am untill it was complete. I dont like leaving tv projects left alone in peices.
I'll never forget, I was restoring an rca ctc25 chassis console about 2 years ago, with the back off, chassis still in place. When I got home from work, the cat was sleeping inside the TV just next to the chassis. My yellow lab came downstairs at the same time I did and scared the cat out of the TV and the cat ran over the chassis and snapped the horizontal efficiancy coil off! Ever since then, Ive been cautious to leave things out that may get wrecked either by the pets or by me not paying attention and kicking something and or breaking it! For example, When I went to get something for dinner last night, I took the chassis and put it down horizontally. I take every precaution I can as I know the wrong move or bump will send it crashing to the floor!
