I watched its a wonderful life on friday for the first time. Wondered where the opening video came from. Ps i want one of these machines in uk but they so expensive to import. Great video
Really interesting to see the internals of these older pieces of equipment! It seems like they made that bracket so that the only way to remove it was to drill out the rivets. I guess they didn't expect someone to tinker with it 70 years after it was manufactured!
(Sorry to hear the news of someone passing)...Well..an exciting finish there....I feel with friends like the long flat head,and a good steady hand,this project is done and dusted...nothing like a sticky gunge to get a new project pumping,,,good luck with part 2..
Chris Cuff passed? That's awful... I learned a lot of what I know about record player repair from his channel. Rest in peace, Chris. Anyways, I just wanted to let you know that the inside of the original cartridge is filled with grease for electrical insulation. After so many years, it usually leaks out all over the place. That's why everything surrounding the cartridge is covered in it. Also, before you do anything with the cam, try and replace/rejuvenate the drive wheel first. The problem with the changing mechanism might be that the wheel is slipping due to age, not the cam slipping.
Red wire goes to right channel on the new cartridge, white goes to left. bridge the two remaining posts and connect the black wire to it,. That creates a common ground for right and left.
Hey buddy just watched your video on the 4512 inch also the meter Noah still awesome you have any ideas where I can get a propeer 78s styylus for cheap I looked on eBay with the fans still and they were about $50 Yanks I also got some bookshelf dividers to hold my records and place I have a very nice shelf system from IKEA but the records keep falling over I looked for record dividers on Amazon's but the ones specifically for records were about $40-$50 so I found some bookshelf dividers that said they were the right dimensions hopefully they'll work as I don't have $50 to throw away onBlocks of wood thanks for the videos I really enjoy them and as long as you're doing it I will be heere thank you

I take the whole shell apart and dig out the sticky lanolin. It makes a great ticky tacky substance for holdind screws on to a drivers.

I did see another video where the owner of an RCA player simply added an extra cable to convert it to a stereo player when he replaced the cartridge.
i see you still have the Magnavox tape deck, i need to start on mine soon
Its definitely not like anything we have here in the UK. I'm used to repairs to BSR and Garrard decks.an enjoyable video as always buddy
Glad you enjoyed
the mechanism on the underside of the 45 player looks like a vm
So is it Sinko or is it Stinko....(sorry, I couldn’t resist!!!) 🤣🤣🤣
On the old cartridge, why didn't you just drill out the rivets?
Exactly what i was thinking.
That would have been smart..lol

is that reel to reel the Magnavox you bought a few months ago?
Yes indeed!
You need to drill out the rivets.
