    I like the 'piece by piece' process....I actually enjoy that more than 'just' seeing the finished product.

    My Grandfather had budgies. Kept them in a cage at the bottom of the garden much like yours. My grandfather died when I was 3 years old but the budgies stayed on in the bottom of the garden until they all died, bar one. He moved into the house with my grandmother. He had a plastic budgie as a companion. (I won't tell you what he did to that, lets just say he was very friendly with it). He lived on until I was around 14 years old, he must have been very happy with his plastic friend. 🐦❤🐦Like they say... there's always one.

      We had a budgie when I was about 3 or 4, I cant remember what it looked like but I can picture the cage and the side of the house where it was hanging anyway it died my mother cooked it, so I looked in the oven for it. She left it in the sun and it died. Later we had a Diamond Finch and it could do tricks like ring a bell on command, open its cage, fetch a little woolen ball so it wasnt all bad,.

    Hi Baz. I'm voting for the step by step process. To me, that's what this is all about.
    Thanks for the look around your workshop. Quite impressive! My back yard never has and never will look that good. If you think noise from budgies is a problem, try having a chook yard adjoining your workshop. Actually I never hear the budgies in your videos. Perhaps your hearing is better than mine. I spent too much time listening to loud music when I was a young bloke.
    Cheers

      Lol, I like hearing your chook & especially the rooster on yours Don, it just adds a sort of real atmosphere. RUclips's not TV so I reckon we all keep it real life.
      That yard of mine was bare slopey ground when I bought the house. So much work in that over the past 5 years.
      Workshop, well it's a mess at the moment. Gotta do more repairs faster, lol
      Cheers 🍻

    Yes, it's nice to follow through the story piece by piece. I know it can be difficult to film whilst actually doing the work, so maybe show some parts being done, plus a bit of "I did this, then I did that". The main thing, I feel, is to follow the story through, as every repair is a bit of an adventure! Many thanks for sharing what you do.

    Yes all of it minute by minute in exquisite detail apart from toilet breaks.

    Did you know you could teach those budgies to talk? We had a 78 rpm record with special phrases to help teach ours to talk. After they learned you had to be careful what you said as they might learn a curse word or two. We used a phonograph my Dad built from scratch (not a kit) using 3 tubes 35Z5, 25L6 and 12sq7 which was a 78 rpm unit only. For some reason he used a field coil type 4" speaker rather than a permanent magnet type. Line (you call it "Mains") operated, no power transformer, but typical here in the US (120 volt 60 hz). You could pull one over on your friends and say "I'm bringing out the Rolls" and they'd expect to see a car. I like the piece by piece videos.

    Good start, Baz. Yeah, let’s see you finish the job off, please! It might be a cheap little player, but it deserves to sing again!

    Go for the complete restore on video Baz, much more interesting. I suspect the thing probably works already lol but a real pity about the tone arm. Also, nice to have two common valves as well rather than odd bod pommy valves I've come across on some of these players. I've never heard of the rolls brand, but at a guess, I'd say this is mid 50's to early 60's.

    Finish product is better, because it is an old suitcase turntable. Hope it turns out good.

      @@techobaz55 Oh. how did I forget this? I think I was waiting for the job to be completed then grade you with a grading for Pizzas. So ok, you want it in advance, its coming , 1 large sized Pizza from Pizza Hut and a 1.25 litre Coca cola. Enjoy! And keep the good work up Bazza.
