Hi just a few photos on the progress of my Torn Radio
My intention is to build and fit a valve receiver in the unit and also a PMR i have also cut all the major knobs off and intend to link directly to the receiver inside, i have cut perspex for the dials, and downloaded a dial face plate, then mounted it onto perspex, i have made all the sockets live, ( and Fu*k*d up one of the bottom push in terminals but its now been fillered and re drilled, and re tapped !) the front plate has now been sanded down and stoppered, filling all the light scratches out, The sheet steel arrived last week so got the box to sort out, I will post more when finished thanks ....sorry for the shity photos as took with Cam phone as misplaced cam lead.

always loads going on German Ebay m8
I got 3 sets of headphones a morse key and a stand mic all from there not badly priced too just watch for the non paypal ones as the bank charges hefty fees for wire transfers.
