A steamer ( not electric) and a frying pan both are replacements of old items.

A new pinch roller (£2.85 Ebay) to help in re-furbishing my Akai GXC-38D cassette deck. It'll need slight fettling to fit as it's not an exact Akai part but it's close enough.

I'll also need a suitable main belt as it's got a kink in it from having not been used for some time.

I'll have to bring the electronics up gently to allow the capacitors to re-form. I may need to replace them. All the switches and sliders will need the magic engineers' spray. Be nice to have a vintage bit of kit working again.:)

Blimey I remember those from the days when Akai wasn't a very decent hi-fi brand.

Akai tape decks had a good name, don't know about the rest. I also have the reel-to-reel DS4000. (Dolby @ 7 1/2 inches / sec was always decent) This always looks good with the metal spools.

Likely.

Want these back to be able to play some classic recordings from The Old Grey Whistle Test and Sounds of the Seventies including some live concerts
