60b Chassis attachment
#12

Well....hit another setback that has stopped me in my tracks. There are more than 3 rubber washers under that tuner. I got it in and it was still loose as all you know what. I hadn't inspected much between the tuner and the chassis as there just isn't much room with two relatively short wires coming from the tuner through the chassis for connections and two more for the indicator bulb. Got to looking there and I saw three larger (also obliterated) rubber washer that were now out of place. These appear to be just plain old rubber washers, unlike the shoulder washers under the chassis, also appear to be a larger diameter and go between the chassis and the tuner around the screw sleeves. Their dimensions are gonna be more difficult to determine because of their extremely poor condition, but I'm gonna give it a guess. I'm thinking 3/16 or 1/4 thickness with the same ID as the shoulder washers. OD approximately 3/4. Looks like I will be heading back to True Value in the AM to dig through the rubber washer bins one more time. @#$%!!!!! Was hoping to get the tubes back in and all put back together and fire it up tonight. Oh well, still have one bakelite block to open and inspect anyway.

You can call me Jerry if you don't want to use my handle.  I get it.  Makes some folks nervous.
I have a finely tuned horse puckey detector.  Don't blame me if it goes off. Oldtimer
