I did my machine 2 plus years ago. I never thought about heating the vinyl at the time so if I would have heat the stuff I could have made it work.

I know mark just did a machine and he said that he had enough material.

so I think tog has made bigger pieces. ask mark he knows he just did one.

thanks,

I installed the first set of Rich's 720 vinyl. There is enough for the whole game. You do have to "measure twice, cut once" for sure.

This restoration looks awesome BTW.

I need a set of the vinyl but it's out of stock. Anyone know if they are going to make another run?

Looks great man!

If Advans didn't sell you such a POS, it would have been a lot easier

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I am really happy with it.

I have a repro LETA chip on order from Vector Labs. I hope that solves my skater direction issues.

Restoration looks great.

One question, how did you do the t-molding on the ghetto blaster? I need to do some bond on mine and got some new t-molding but it is not clear how the t-modiling gets on the underside between the boombox and the cabinet.

Thanks.

You have to carefully take the top pieces off. The easiest way I have done this is just hitting it a couple times with a rubber mallet. They pop right off or you can pry them off, only a few staples hold them on. Attachment can be made with the same narrow crown staples or 1 1/4 screws.
Good luck.

Yep, what markrl said. I knocked them off with a rubber mallet and I carefully screwed them back on by drilling a pilot hole and making sure I used screws that would not go all the way through both pieces of wood.

 

[jgeiger]

Well, that was easy.

Thanks guys.
