I am working on the power supply for my R-390 undoing a sloppy solid state
"upgrade" by restoring the rectifier tubes. I couldn't find the heater wires
that run from the transformer to the two sockets although I was certain that
they had to be there. The lacing was in tack and didn't look like it was
disturbed but the wires were nowhere to be seen....the sneaky devil had
clipped them off and tucked them into the harness! I had to clip the harness
to pull them out.... Now of course I will have to replace the lacing on the
harness..... Oh the joy of restoration.

PS: I haven't laced a cable in about 35 years but I am actually looking
forward to renewing that lost skill (Art?).
