Time for a major Update !

Power Supply was fully functional, but looked like it need a bit of a refresh with the rest of the internals of the cabinet. As part of the restoration, I clean all the wiring and even the cable guides, so it makes sense to do the boards and mounting hardware. This will be stripped and cleaned before re installation.





The old door needs work. The owner decided on a new door skin, which I purchased from RTBB. In order to match the condition of the new doorskin, I opted to replate the internals. As I've mentioned before, I do my own Zinc plating "in house", and I really enjoy doing it ! It is time consuming, but I have not lost a part yet !





Along with other parts that I've organized, these are the parts I will replate in one session








New doorskin !





replated parts !





re assembled door internals ;








Completed front door is installed





Power Supply mounting assembly is refitted after restoration.




Lots more to come as I play "catch up" !
