You may already have read about Hugo Holden's 621 remanufacturing project on the ETF website.

Going to those lengths is not to my taste, but there's a lot of good information in that article.

A 621 will cost more upfront than a 630, but if you pay yourself $1 per hour during the restoration, you can earn back that investment in no time :-)

Good job on this project. If you run out of things to do, you can finish my incomplete RCA CTC-11 color roundie, which has been languishing on the workbench.

Yup. A 621TS would be nice. If you know of a good restoration candidate, let me know.

By The Way, both You and Hugo Holden were the inspiration for my Project. As you can see from the finished resto, I closely followed both of your work.

Thanks!
