That’s a find!
Cool photo either way
Cheers yeah, certainly was. Worst thing was that I was a senior tech in a room full of young blokes who'd never really heard or seen cassettes before much less an old boom box outside of the movies. Boom box works pretty well too I gotta say. Not parting with that retro-ness (but then I still have my parents Technics stereo circa 1982-83 so ya know...).
Good pic cheers, but the damn thing sitting up there in full view is taunting me. I've determined today is the last day I'm going to keep adding coats over the decals. It's pretty damn close to flat, and buried far enough to not look like they've just been stuck on there. Next sand will be hard over the decals to bring em down a bit further, then a full body sand at 1200 followed by a full coat. If that looks half way reasonable, I'll leave it sit there for a few days then move it to the wall for a few weeks. I've got some leave in October, so will be gunning to get it polished, wired and setup ready to go.
