I went to the last day of an estate sale this weekend where everything was picked over and half-priced. I was going with the hopes of finding some precision machinist tools (another hobby). After circling the house a few times I found most everything picked over with no tools in sight. However...

I found this table locally and brought it home a couple of days ago. She was a mess covered in years of nicotine and grime. I honestly had second thoughts once I got it home that I paid too much, it looked so bad. It appears as if the chassis is rusted and pitted. I also picked up a single...

After cutting cable TV about a year ago, YouTube has become my favorite content provider. I do not miss cable and find streaming a much better alternative. I have Netflix, Prime, and the major broadcast networks as well as a few others along with the non-premium YouTube app. When I turn on...

I am researching replacement parts for a Siemens Selenium rectifier seen here: I have never replaced one of these. Would this part from Mouser work...

I replaced all the paper capacitors in a 1950's Grundig and have a few of these in there. What is the consensus?

I am working on a recap of a Grundig Console and have a quick question. In the picture below I am assuming the mark that looks like a comma is a decimal point. 0,15 uf is .15 uf?

Anyone else excited about this new official release? Live extended cuts from the "Sell Out" ...my personal favorite Who era..and a 33 minute "My Generation" extended freak out. This was to be an official release back in the day but shelved for 50 years. Yes, a bootleg exists but the sound...

I replaced the idler on my 124 about a month ago with a new audiosilente o-ring idler. I am now hearing the idler o-ring making a slight squealing sound against the platter once it is engaged. Does anyone have a suggestion for taming this? I was thinking possibly using talcum powder. The noise...

I just discovered this series. I believe most of them are posted on Youtube. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0070y2d/episodes/guide Some really good watching here. The show explores the creative fusion of how members progress from one band on to the next ending in the super groups we know...

I am not necessarily talking volume but more a question regarding desirable hard to find albums? I have browsed many stores with tons of albums that are fairly easy to find but a store with a large selection of harder to find rarer titles is scarce.

No one did a better job than this British design firm capturing the imagination and creativity that is Rock and Roll. In 1967 while still in art school, Aubrey ‘Po’ Powell and Storm Thorgerson were approached by their friends in Pink Floyd to design the cover for the group’s second album, A...

I go to maybe 2 or 3 estate sales a month, I have noticed the ones I have been to in the last year or so that have any mention of records have one thing in common. The buyers lined up at the door that have been there for hours are all after the records. Mid Century modern comes in a close second...
