Matty, Good one. ;D ;D ;D ;D ...when a fun Saturday afternoon for you is sorting N.O.S. slightly rusted phonograph needles. Regards, J. Gents, For those of you who thought I was kidding about those needles: I finished last night  . I think I must have sorted through and examined with a 16x loupe about 1,200 needles!  Some had rusted tips so I had to toss them and a few used had gotten mixed in at some point, but most were good, just a quick buffing with 0x steel wool to remove some rust off some of the shafts. Mostly loud tone, a few nice Victor soft tone by the look of them and some of those, drat I keep forgetting what they're called-Duo-Tone's one brand name I think, they look similar to tungs-tone but aren't gold tone or black. Also got a small box of curiosities.  Regards, J. |
