Mike's Radio

So here is Mike's latest project a Philco radio from 1938. He bought it off ebay (we picked it up in Fargo) and stripped it down, sanded, refinished, replaced all the tubes and compacitors, order a new part for the dial and so here it is. The only thing left to do was to order the original fabric for the bottom as this has been changed. Oh and the darn thing really works. It picks up stations from all over, the other night we were listening to a Thailand station. It's pretty neat.

The only problem is now he is addicted to the old radios. Two days later we were at a garage sale out in the prairies of GF and came across one from 1935ish so he had to have that one too. Oh well, I got my crop-a-dile so I'll be happy for a little while :)
