Ok, for now that is all I have time to post. We did make a good deal of progress, but you all will just have to wait and see.

Todd and I both have to head out for work. I will post the rest tonight!

Uncool leaving us hanging. 

Get an 8 to 5 job!  (And a turntable while you're at it.)

I work 9-5 tomorrow, any better? Like you, I am posting on the job!

As for the turntable - you must be patient! Haha

Rich:

What can be more important than a BEO speaker repair, OK boys will wait, but I dont like it

I don't like it either, but I gotta earn some cash. After all, how will I buy a turntable without any money?!

Leslie:

You are fantastic, brotherhood first class! Wish I could stand between you guys. It's great to see members live on pictures. Maybe tomorrow I will show you a picture of me working on my Beocord. It will be a fantastic day tomorrow with lots of sunshine.

Yes! I like that pic too! I have noticed you often inclide yourself in your avatars

Eugene:

Somewhere on one of my hard drives I will have to dig up the photos I took of the process i used to recloth my Red Lines a few years back. 57 days and counting - up,

Hey look everybody, its our good friend Richard! I was about to gather a search party to go and find you!

Good job on your 57 day streak

Eugene get the toaster ready buddy I'm head'n your direction! Evan's been trying too get me over to your place every since he discovered you.

Trust me if I have anything to do with it; It won't be long.

Todd

Hey Leslie and Soren,

Not too long ago gotten home from work and came across your complimentary words about Ev's and my team effort on this Refurb. I simply

have to Thank Both of You but you have too know I've been inspired by you guys for months which has given me the courage w/Ev's

Enthusiasm and persistance thats brought me to the project and Intro to The Beoworld Family. "There is a little more about the history of

Evman140 and myself on forums under my discussions or active ; click the (2nd) RL 60.2 Refurb collaborations. I try by wit and

embarrasment to bait Evman into getting that Secondary B & O Collection but you know that little rascal wouldn't Bite P.S. Thanks Again

Fellas, talk tomorrow

 Hey Rich! By Golly you sure fixed that! Clever editing; I stand corrected but only in part. Evman140 is my Home Boy besides until I get

those speakers back I have to tread lightly

Evan:

Yes! I like that pic too! I have noticed you often inclide yourself in your avatars

I'm always curious who these people are, what they do and how they look all hiding behind their Avatars and nicknames.

That's why Eugene "turns me on" with all her avatars and pictures and I mean that in a nice way. This "turns me on" is just an expression I got earlier from another member in another thread. I hope he ment this in a friendly way , although. Any way, are you guys already woke up! Start doing something[:D

That's cool Todd, keep up the good work!

By the way, got two small presents ready for you both as soon as you have finished this project succesfully (incl. embossing). Consider it as a sort of appreciation

Todd:

Hey Todd & Ev,

As I remember that Ev really wanted a BM4000 instead of his down BM3000 that would be a possibility for you to get it - and that would be the next repair challenge for you

If I only could get one of mine to him - I'm getting another (still broken) one next week so have enough of them for me. But for the shipping costs

Good luck with your projects,

   Gunther

Yes, I like seeing BeoWorlders out in the open too!

Unfortunately I am at work (so is Todd) and wont be able to pick up until this evening. But stay tuned! I have much to post!

I love my 3000 to death and it will be getting fixed! Martin is currently assembling a cap/lamp/trimmer kit for me now. So that project will resume!

I would love to have a 4000 to place next to my 3000, what a sight!!! Dare I ask what shipping would cost?

Evan:

I checked 15 Kg to Mex city from DK, depending on the carrier 400-500 USD, maybe Deutches Bundespost is cheaper. the 4000 is 12 Kg.

When in Struer go pick it up,  or ship to the hotel in Struer, and bring it as carry on. Thats what I would do

Evan:

Dare I ask what shipping would cost?

Ev, I really don't know but I think shpping from Europe to the US is expensive.

That BM4000 weighs 10.4kg without any packing. Dimension packed would be roughly 70 x 40 x 20cm.

Had a short look at DHL - Package with 120 x 60 x 60 max with 20kg to USA is 65 EURs.

That's much more than I paid for my BM's Even counting in the spare parts I needed to repair them.

If you would have an idea.....

Or we can hand it over at Struer next year - but this would easily kill your free baggage weight

   Gunther

EDIT: oops, Soren was there with the same idea And for sure several 100 $$$ are more than inacceptable.

EDIT2: And all the european BM4000's I know of are 104MHz only

Leslie:

Where do you get these, or can you sell my one, PM me, I promis to emboss everything I can in the future

I have been trying to get freight quotes, DHL, UPS and Fedex and online they only give me the Express qoute, so Gunthers qoute is more realistic.

Where do you get it Gunther ??. I'm very interested in bringing a Reel to Reel (2400) and USD 100.00 wont blow me off.

Søren Mexico:

Where do you get it Gunther ??

The freight quote?

I looked at http://www.dhl.de/en.html   (they even have this in english - I just guessed about the /en & it works, I was directed to /de...)

Don't know if they are really valid - If we have to be sure I'll have to ask some real person at the office when I find one...

And having a look at freight to Mexico - that's 85EURs @ 20kg as that's obviously another zone. Still better than the $$$...

   Gunther

Found it, Bundespost is using DHL for packets, und Deutsch ist kein problem, Ich spreche Deutsch wie ein Hamburger, mojn, mojn.

All the shippers gives you an internatinal express rate, and no info on cheaper rates. PITA

So, jetz kanst Du mir ein Beocord Reel to Reel 2400 geschenken (kann auch ein andere Modelle sein), mit grosse Freude zahle ich die Versandkosten

Hi guys,

Finally finished my Beocord. Don't wanna start a new thread but as promised 2 pictures and a link to my webalbum where you can see more of all the work I did on this beast! Unfortanetely I haven't made any pictures in "Before" situation but I can tell you that it was heavily scratched and damaged in some areas. Toedeloe....

Søren Mexico:

so eines???

That one has a dull sound, looks like the tape head. Already cleaned it several times and it has no viewable signs of wear... Azimuth adjusted but no real success. Shifted back in the shelf for later treatment...

Søren Mexico:

mojn, mojn

Doesn't this in "Hamburgish" mean "kiss my a$$"

   Gunther

@ Ev / Todd: sorry for hi-jacking the thread - will have to fight with Soren on a PM base

@ Leslie: Nice garden (and of course nice Beocord - much cleaner than mine...)

hemenex:

Beautiful piece Leslie, and you dont look to bad yourself

Leslie:

Yep, stowed away in a plastic bag not to lose or scratch them

Project is not urgent, probably something for the long cold winters...
