This guys the real deal. So rare to see the real deal this guys it.

Wow!!! Dudes dedicated! Knows his stuff! Does perfect work!

Blimy David.. getting started without a circuit diagram.. If that had been me, I'd have been like a one legged bloke in an ass kicking contest.. Brilliant and exacting piece of work as always..

Thank you David.. Fabulous video and real craftsmanship with your restoration. No stone un-turned! Thank you for the quality of your material and videos. Great to see these works of engineering restored to this quality. Unwards and upwards!

I truly enjoy watching you work David. I am an engineer for 3 small market radio stations, and the only tubes (valves) used in our FM transmitter are the 5CX1500A. I was trained in a time when everything was solid-state, except for the final power amplifier. Of course, transmission is different than reception in many ways. You are a true Master Crafstman. Very few people take the time to work the small details these days, it's truly a joy to see your restore these units. Have a great week, Sincerely, Randall Mann

My parents had one of these when they were living in Woomera in the '50s. A good fringe set. Great video.

With these videos, you are broadcasting not only restoration expertise, but love, and passion too. Thanks a lot...!

F-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c job David... again. Great voice over and music. Top job how you dealt with the broken potmeter-switch. Jealous on your skills. Regards again, Ruud, Holland

Very interesting David. My first job was at Kriesler Newtown from 1957 while I completed a part-time radio engineering course. I later spent many years designing lift control systems and finally as a freelance technical writer. I had several Kriesler radios and TVs, spare components, circuits and , all now passed on to a service guy in Newcastle.

Brilliant as always - thank you for posting your radio restore/repairs. Take care.

I just came across your videos as a result of a quick search. I was just donated a Philips RF5 Radiogram with turntable and microphone for singing along. It's my first project and very much looking forward to making it work. Most grateful for your insights and tips.

A very nice restoration! I am totally jealous of your capabilities and resourcefulness. Thumbs up!!

This radio sounds really clear and mellow. As usual the appearance looks mint. Thanks for another interesting video.

Another superb restoration David, well done!

Looks the absolute business and sounds a treat! Owner must've been delighted, I know I would be.

David I have always known the A is a linear pot and B is log. Good video David as usual. Thankyou

Once again Dave, you have done an excellent repair/restore on that Kriesler radio. Pure gold. You make the troubleshooting and diagnosis look so easy. 2 thumbs up. :)

Another well crafted repair. Restoration done right. Really enjoyed the video Dave.

Very nice job! I like how you fixed the speaker looked original afterward. Everything turned out nice and the radio is back at it's peak for another many years!

I had one of these when i was a kid. Wish i had it now !! Great video post and as a retired tv teck well done. Personally i"m in the middle of restoring a AWA p1 television. Still with the original tube !!

Brilliant work! Keep the videos coming!

Another great restoration video David, this set certainly came up well and sounds really good.👍

A perfect restroration needs knowledge and dedication. Both are there.👍your videos make my day....🥰

Nice work on the case and I liked your presentation.

I know this video is a couple years old but I had to add my congratulations and say that the Kriesler sounds really clear. What a nice radio and what a nice job!

I agree with many of the comments. Another beautiful job David and I bet the owner was over the moon with the result.

Beautiful job! Excellent technique and workmanship. Makes me want to redo some of the sets I worked on when I first started repairing them! Love the radio designs you've got in Australia, some beautiful dials.

I am amazed with your work. Congratulations 👏

very cool radio and excellent rebuild/repair/ explainations,really helps a greenhorn out.thank you!

I never thought id be into radios, but here I am, watching this video, the radio that started this was a philco model 70 that had I actually acquired through my job for half the asking price

Enjoyable nightcap. Thanks again David.

Dave, I’m really enjoying your videos. I grew up with Kriesler radios. I had a plum pudding sans case on my bed head at about age 10 when my passion for electronics took off. I have the radiogram, the bread loaf and several plum puddings, including a white one, and the newer triple throat with the knobs on each end all awaiting restoration. You have inspired me to get on with it. Sadly, at 66 I haven’t retired yet so time is of the essence. Meanwhile I’ll keep watching and learning. Thank you.

This man is amazing with these radios ! I have got a 1928 philipps radio , i wish he could get it working for me but i live in the uk . Brilliant video as always .

Hi David, a very nice restoration. A gentleman dropped off a lovely 11-9D console today which shares the same chassis so your video will come in handy. Thanks for another great video.

I just love your channel, I have been binge watching your videos for several days now and sharing them on the radio group on facebook

Some interesting old radios there. Congratulations to Mrs Tipton for joining in with your hobby. My long suffering wife loyalty accompanies myself as I drag her (not literally of course) around yet another transport museum or classic bus rally and so forth. Occasionally she gets to play clippie if I take a vehicle along which she enjoys. Well done for sorting this one. Nothing worse than following someone else’s work especially when it’s less than thorough.

Again - a super project. Thank you for sharing....

Wow very nice complete restoration. What a beauty! I have never seen such a set here in the States, perhaps they never came this far.

you sir, are a fine craftsman. [ that, by the way, is a high compliment ]

Hi David from mike here in nz used to work for consolidated electronics industries back in the mid 80s aligning bell com radios marine radios long time ago cannot not remember the procedure but it makes me think back after watching you do it.

What a fantastic job David!

What can one say, amazing and neat as usual. If only I could find someone like you to recap my Dual p1010 sv...

Amazing and inspiring! Among the very best I’ve seen on KZfaq! I DREAM of learning and being this good some day! You don’t deserve 1.4K subscribers! You deserve 1.4 MILLION subscribers! 😊😊😊 Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I use post it notepad sheets to clean out the speaker gaps, fold it with the sticky sides back to back and work it into the gap, helps grab onto the dirt in the gap.

This looks like a radio 📻 fit for use in a restaurant, hence its “jukebox” like appearance. I remember eating out at a restaurant named “The Hub”, in my hometown of Glennallen, Alaska in 1978 for Mother’s Day. My parents, which are still living there, were about to be newlyweds. I do not remember if The Hub had a jukebox or not, or a radio like you restore. I remember the unique smells of the place. One ☝️ like food 🥘, one ☝️ like perfume of some sort. I enjoyed being here, but unfortunately, the restaurant burned down in the spring or summer of 1979, if I’m not mistaken on the year. This radio looks so worthy of such a restaurant, but only if it doesn’t burn down. This radio has a hint of the 1950’s and 1960’s, and hippies. Seems as if houses are styled alike, as far as this. Radios 📻 and houses go hand 🤚 in hand 🤚 I guess. Like the radio takes on the same generation or era as the house. I really like this radio. Too bad it isn’t a coin operated radio 📻 like the ones I told you about earlier. Also, this radio should have miniature 45’s inside. Better yet, this radio be the same size as a jukebox, with 45’s in it.

Fantastic work you do...very amasing...thanks for good film so mush..all best from john

Superb cabinet work. Great job. In my restorations, the cabinets are always cleaned up in the sink ... when my wife is t there, of course :)

What a great job. The Brasso worked great on the case. I'm gonna have to try that on my Bakelites.👍👍👍👍👍

Nice restore David. I've been enjoying your videos. It's a big plus to be able to fabricate your own parts also. ATB Doug.

another masterful job.

Another great job David. Nice machining and attention to detail. Sounds great too! 73 de KB7ICI......Bill

At 1:04 to the right of, but right next to that garish greenish-blue boxy-looking set, the brown one! Yep, that's it! Our family had one of those for several years, a "Tasma"(Thom and Smith) brand set! That REALLY takes me back! WOW! Haven't laid eyes on one of them for AGES!

Superbe travail comme d'habitude , bravo !

I really enjoyed watching you work on the old girl, I guess I am now going to spend the rest of the day watching your other vids.

Great background muzik. You have good taste in elektronik soundz. The radio turned out really nice. You do great work. Love to watch your vids. Thanks for sharing. Take care. 😉

Very well done !!!

I am a new subscriber. Enjoying your videos very much! From the west coast of Canada 🇨🇦

Gorgeous. As usual.

David !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So good to see you back working your magic! This set was by no means junk, but you still managed to work magic with it. Hoping you have a stash of many more to work on....love your videos. I now have 2 Garod V Neutrodyne's here. Neither would work as is...one doesn't even have valves! Speaking of such, the ones used in this set are 01A's. I am going to have a heck of a time finding those! Not sure that my tester will even test them either...haven't found the tube tester either. Most likely I need to recap the tester too. When I finally do start on the restoration of the Garod V Neutrodyne, I am going to do something with one of the cases that will probably make some people scream. I am going to take "everything" out of the case, clean the case, then sand it down and re-stain it to have a nicer case. The second one already looks great other than being a bit dirty. If you provide me with an email address I can send to, I will send you photos of the new one. I actually have several things to work on...problem is lack of parts, time, and money!!! Don't know if my phone would do well enough to make a video for KZfaq or not, can't afford a "real camera" right now. But maybe I will make a video of recapping the tube tester, my Hallicrafters 8R40, and the Garod's. Again, glad to see you back at it! Looking forward to many more videos! Say HI to the wife too...and tell her I said THANK YOU so very much for allowing David to do this wonderful thing!!!

Another great video! It like a movie for me!

muy buen trabajo. se aprende mucho con sus videos. gracias

fabulous love your videos been hanging for more videos

Exellent job !

Once again a great job my friend

Good 👍 Job David 👏 👍 👌, hope your doing well 👍!! I injoy your Videos 📹 😀 !!!!

Pretty good getting it to work without even having a circuit diagram really first rate work. Thanks for sharing I just subscribed to your channel.

Hi came across your channel by accident and now have subscribed to your channel found it very interesting Mike

Hi David, this was a first class restoration. I'm exalted from your pretty good work. I believe you are one of the best restorer (After me ;

Splendid job, as always. In the U.S. we've got Driscolls strawberries, too!

Watching your restoration videos like, watching a classic movie..... with love from Kolkata, India......

great video cant wait to see the next one

EXCELLENT JOB

Fantastic restoration! I had the same speaker issue with the Kriesler 41-23 I restored, but I didn't know you could use clear plastic down the sides so I just ran it loudly face down for a few hours to work the dirt loose 😅 I thought about using felt but ended up using a modern dust cap, which I now regret. Lessons for next time! I might redo it at some point.

Great sound. Customer should should be very satisfied😉

impressive restoration David ,Greetings

Totally amazed at the attention to detail. I have just been given the exact same model by my wifes grandmother. Needs a renovation if your interested 😁

...nicely done

Hello, very good to you thanks so much!

Great great really professionel Work looks like a Cadillac from the 50 s 👍👍

left the diodes in due to the lower awa transformer replacement , but the sound of it at end was impressive -good stuff love the old gear

Another nice job - good fix on that pot !

Quality Work .

VERY NICE 📻 radio collection. I forgot to tell ya that 📻 capacitors hold a charge, even when the 📻 radio is unplugged. I do 👎 not know if an isolation transformer can "ground", or "dump" this stored voltage. I 👌 know a shock from a capacitor can be potentially dangerous, especially in persons with ❤ heart problems. You can usually discharge capacitors by putting a screwdriver across the terminals, but, regarding these old 📻 radios, you want to properly discharge capacitors, if they're 👍 good, instead of ruin them. Sounds 👍 like ya have some 🔥 hot capacitors, which probably have gone ☝ up in value. Just be careful 👎 not to burn yourself, or be hurt, if the capacitor decides to explode. Also, be careful of starting an accidental 🔥 fire. Your friend, Jeff.

Thanks for that David. Very well done. I have a kriesler 11-7, built in 1948 which I want to refurb. I just need the schematic and source for the components.

suas dicas de construção de peças e truques são incriveis mestre......obrigado

Nice work and great video. I have this same radio model but mine has the EL33 output tube instead. I believe the rectifier is different between these types also, mine is a 6X5GT. Nice radios and are certainly very nice sounding.

A pots are linear, B are log. At least here in the Netherlands ... Good video.

Very nice.

Beautiful job Dave. I used Brasso on a cabinet & it dulled the finish & I could not get it to shine again. Wound up repainting it.

Very nice restoration there David. The display in Canberra reminds me of the HRSA display at the library here in Bacchus Marsh some years ago. If you’re passing through sometime it might be worth visiting the blacksmiths cottage as they have a Marshman Music Master.

I am a retired college art historian. I've heard a story (apocryphal?). There was a proto- renaissance artist and Giotto was his name. In the late 1200 hundreds he wanted to be apprenticed to an artist named Cimabue and Giotto drew a perfect circle. Obviously, he was apprenticed to Cimabue.

Holy cow, that's not restoration, that's a rebirth. I'd expect music and news from 1953 to start coming out of that radio!

*_Bravo prijatelj_*

This is a fun repair! I replace the 2 or 3 wax coupling capacitors at preamp and power amp stages as a rule before powering up. this saves a lot of hassle and lets me do a first power-up with more confidence. I have the same Leader LSG-11 Sig Gen and I find it to be accurate enough without using a frequency counter to confirm the dial settings. The only negative comment I have is that it generates too many overtones which can be confusing, especially on the Shortwave bands. I'm thinking of doing a mod so that I can enable/disable overtones by having a bias shift switch on the oscillator tube to make the sinewave more pure.

Wow..... Davad.. Thes rados vare good

Whats the background music?...nice. BTW- Nice job on restore!!! You take your time like Mr Carlson's Lab.

It was a one owner virgin.Definitely a keeper

Hi Dave! Another great restoration. You had not mentioned if you had put it back to tube rectifier. Probably the transformer had been replaced due to the rectifier tube shorting as was common with 6X5, 6X4 etc when pushed to the limits, so the diodes were put in place out of fear of burning another transformer.

David, you have great taste in music (most of the time) ;) Let me know if you enjoyed the coffee!

I just ordered that degitech analog multimeter because of your videos ,I bought three heath kit vtvm tube mutimeters ,,,but until I get all the parts and cables for it the degitech analog meter seems to work for you ,Its a long trip from where you are to where I am in the USA ,but I look forward to get a meter from there.it great to learn from you thanks
