M90 done at last!

[MyOhMy]

Fantastic job indeed. I often wonder if the original designers and manufacturers of these BB's ever imagined how much these excellent machines would be looked after by an invisible army of enthusiasts so many years into the future?

Hah, I was going to, but just got a good case of the lazies |-)

Haha. I wish they made an immunization for that.

Very nice work Eric!

It is great to see any restoration (especially on a M90), however this was tricky and I admire such patience. It should now last for another 20 - 30 years. Fantastic.

new to the site and my experience with boxes is minimal-but when i rescued my jvc rcm70c from the recycle something told me it was better than average(my ears) seeing your job on the m90 has me thinking i will have to try my hand on a couple of mods and some maintenance , re-cap as needed etc.great site!

Im a little late to the party on this thread but I can only echo what every body else has already said.

Really impressive work

 

[Transistorized]

Never too late for a M90 my friend. I'm sure Eric is at the enjoyment stage

Hello their nice work. I want to restore mine to. Just want to know where did you buy these elco's.

Thanks! I use Mouser, but some were out of stock at the time so I had to use DigiKey for those.

Didn't know you had a door cover project in the works too. Do you want me to send you one of mine to try?

 

[caution]

Hah No need, the cover's paint was spotty so I covered it with a decal. I thought about painting it but I like the brushed metal look.
