Allready did... when i had a 1937 radio sent from LA.. A short trip up to me, but the speaker came loose and bounced ALLLOVER the inside of the radio. Took out a couple tubes, and the field coil speaker was shredded..
The way the motos are set up, i was anticipating a tube jumping ship and goin for a tumble, Much to my suprise, it held together on the LONG trip..
I almost believe they see the insurance sticker and it keeps em humble when they handle it, Also gotta give kudos to Snelson for creating an internal fortress of a box for the long trip... Took me 15 mins and a knife to access the inside of the box LOL!
But its here, and it looks and runs like the previous pics shown, Futuristicly, it faces a teardown, painjob, and full recap, rebuild....
My first tv model is home
Mission accomplished and thanks to all
