Well, I had posted a while back that I was in search of a project to work on. I’d thought about building a go-kart, but realized after I move to Manhattan, I wouldn’t be able to use it much. And after a lot of thinking, I’ve decided I want to restore an old tube radio from the 1940’s.


It’ll be fun, challenging, but not impossible. Just exactly what I’m looking for! And not too expensive as it looks now. I got the radio for $45 on eBay, and it’s surely got bad capacitors, which in total would be about ten bucks. From there, it’s either repair or replace the turn table motor/switch and a new cartridge for the tone arm.
Really I think it’s a beautiful radio. Wish me luck!
