Author Topic: Zenith Restoration Help For Phil Hill Will Kutler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1506 From: Tucson, AZ, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 04-30-2009 01:06 AM                     Hi Phil Jenna usually doesn't answer e-mails, so here is a thread in his honor. http://www.tubesandmore.com/. for your cloth covered wire. Pretty inexpensive. Stick with 18-22 AWG UL 1015 for the base wire. It is rated for 600V 200 degree F. Several companys sell cloth covered wire, just avoid the standard 12V type used in automotive restoration. Its not suitable for antique electronics. Cheers.

Some very handy things available from those folks in addition to the wire. Those with Guitars, Leslie speakers, etc. should also check it out.  |  IP: Logged Charles Greenlee Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 801 From: Savannah, Ga, U.S. Registered: Jun 2006 posted 04-30-2009 08:05 PM                        Linkie brokie. And damn shame too. I was looking for a source for some old cloth insulated wire for a costume idea for Dragoncon this year. I need to get working on that soon.  |  IP: Logged Will Kutler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1506 From: Tucson, AZ, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 04-30-2009 08:18 PM                     Antique Electronic Supply in Tempe, AZ web-site is working. www.tubesandmore.com.

Put a space after the URL and before the period if you insist upon ending a sentence with it.  |  IP: Logged Charles Greenlee Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 801 From: Savannah, Ga, U.S. Registered: Jun 2006 posted 05-01-2009 01:53 AM                        Awesome site. They have coil wire too, which I'll be needing. But I really could use a hevy gauge cloth cover camble of a few feet length. Something like maybe an antique starter/battery cable from an old car. It's only for a costume so actual specs don't matter much, just so long as it'll appear turn of the century-ish, and that it looks like it'll take alot of juice. I'm also gonna sweet talk a few of the cathod cable from one of the local theatres to appear like grounding leads.  |  IP: Logged
