How to make new look old
10/30/2008 8:35:16 AMBlaine
Hello all.
I like to keep all my work looking as authentic as possible.I am unsure what to do to make an electrical connection look old. The black tape just doesn't cut it.
Thanks

explain a little bit on what you mean. i dont use tape at all. cap and resister leads can be soldered to the lugs or tube sockets directly. if a wire is bad or need splicing you can replace the whole piece with cloth covered wire that looks authentic.

Question answered thank you. I seen the tape thing on the receiver I am working on, I just clued in to running a new piece of wire. Thanks
