Default COIL, Aerial Tuning No. 2 A. ZA/CAN 4725

It is always a nice feeling when things start going back on during a restoration.

That started with the restoration of the Coil, Aerial Tuning No. 2 A with the 52-Set Project when the green wool felt pad that protects the coil chassis was the first part to be glued, and reattached to the floor of the case.

I had to take another look at the back of the pad first to be certain it was a running bead of glue which had been squirted over the back to originally mount it, and then follow suit with the new glue. It was relatively easy process. One only needs to get the two rear holes for the mounting hardware that comes up through the floor of the case to secure the coil chassis centred and lay the pad down. It will move fairly easy for a couple of minutes allowing for fine tuning of the placement and then I used an old, smooth, steel sanding block I had to firmly press the entire pad down in its final placement. This is the same glue I had used a few months back to install the reproduction Parts Lists I had to make for the Spares Cases, at it dries a yellowish colour very similar to the wartime mucilage glue used by Canadian Marconi Company. Should be all dried and set by Sunday.
