Re: Motorola SK-29M Restoration

It is weird not seeing the magnet in the normal spot, and this is the first time ever seeing a speaker like that, thank you for sharing that photo.

Re: Motorola SK29, now mine!

Nice MCM Motorola, you did good with this find. And, I am sure once done it will look just like the one in the Ebay ad. Interesting, I do not see a separate pair of tubes for the center channel. Or, the center channel is PP and the outside channels are single ended. I am sure as your restoration sto...

Great job, Mr. Mogel. I guess the old saying, "patients is a virtue," is true. :)

Re: Finally Retired

The health care/Medicare-supplement mess is really not that bad to deal with. Finding a good agent is the best way to do it as each state is slightly different on the plans they offer. In Michigan you can change Advantage Plans every year if you want. If you have a Medigap plan like I do you are pre...

Re: Finally Retired

I have the old fashion Medicare, Medicap plan for my supplement. The premium can be costly but I pay nothing when I go in for whatever. I had 5 days in the hospital back in February with a bill of over 60K and I paid nothing, other than the premium of course.

It went from $499.9 here to $479.9 yesterday as well. Not as cheap as your price but better, they are practically giving it away. :roll: :lol:

Re: Lawrence Welk show from 1961

The grandparents never missed it and since I stayed with them a lot I got to enjoy it too. My mom would watch, but my stepdad liked classical music so not so much for him. I will still watch the reruns on PBS when I think of it.

Re: Finally Retired

Rex. My guess is yes, I have some in my flower bed and they look like yours. They came with the house. The Japanese Iris are kind of petite compared to the normal Iris and are the blue/yellow color, at least mine are.

Re: Now here's a record player even I can work on! 😃

Before you directly apply heat try a hair dryer on the highest setting. I am not a fan of direct heat, touching something, but have had really good luck with a hair dryer. Don't be afraid of getting it HOT, like hot enough you shouldn't touch it. Then if that does not work...
