One DAMN SEXY 100% refurbished Tempest spinner, brass bushings - $125 shipped
I have one fully refurbished Tempest spinner available. This is the ultimate original Tempest spinner, updated with the best new parts, and adjusted to perfection.
Details:
- Fully disassembled, every part washed and dried before reassembly.
- Polished copper encoder disc. (Slightly thicker, nicer quality than silver disc.)
- New brass bushings from Glitch. (See thread here.)
- Bushings have been aligned and epoxied in place (see pic), so they won't loosen up within the frame.
- Bushings have been lubed with silicone grease and liquid bearings (ultra smooth, and spins freely),
- Shaft has been properly shimmed to minimize up/down play (nearly zero play).
- Original PCB has been rebuilt with new (NOS) optos.
- Includes original spinner knob, 100% intact, no cracks or damage.
- Play-tested in my personal Tempest cab.
This is as nice an original spinner as you are going to find. I have spent considerable time on this, and even removed and hand-polished the copper encoder disc, as it's so freaking gorgeous. It's as nice as can be.
I will also warranty the opto board for one year.
$125 shipped in the US. Int'l shipping extra.
