Well the nice weather has tempted me to spend more time outside than in the basement the past week or two. However I have gotten some work done on the Admiral Telebar set.
The radio has been recapped and reassembled. Ready to plug into the TV chassis for the first power up attempt (whenever that may be).
I also completed the turntable restore last night. Last step was to re-flock the platter. Used a fine wire wheel brush on a drill to remove the old flock and adhesive. Then brushed on the new adhesive and sprayed on new flock. Came out really nice actually. More like a felt finish now. Not as fuzzy as the original because the flock was not electro-statically charged when applied. But I think it looks fine. Whole job took only 15 minutes.
I also have been collecting period bar items for the set too.
