Nope just a bullheaded old Irishman with to much time on my hands Neil.
The vibrators can generally be rebuilt a time or two but that's about it. They were only good for about a year to eighteen months in regular use when new. Your much better off with the SS vibrators, they will last ya a lifetime and ya can't tell from the outside that it's not original. I'm trying to get together some info for SS tube replacements. they are a bit harder to replace. I'm not an engineere nor a very good electronics tech, but I taint a half bad mechanic so if I can find someone's design for SS tube replacements I can build it.
