I have an oversized cardboard box, will probably line it with pieces of OSB and put the turntable in the center with foam around it (on the sides, bottom and on topp).

Yesterday, I started with installing the new transport lock bushings. Not that easy without dismantling all the internals! I neighbour came over and help me with the one at the front. Still have the one in the righthand corner to do. Most of the cabinet guiding washers were okay, only the one in front needed to be changed. Of course, I replaced the other ones too. Next up is the platter bearing. A friend will make a different one, with a better guiding sideways at the bottom of the bearing. I have also collected a lot of passive components, to replace all electrolytics. The trimpots may also need to replaced as well as some resistors. For the rest, it will probably be up to an expert like Beolover. Checking the AC-motor, the arm transport etc. <br /><br />Greetings from Sweden Roger Gustavssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10296979751786491407noreply@blogger.com
