Finished my 1963 #Slingerland Concert snare refurb-refinish. Really happy with how the finish turned out. Can't wait to shake it down at the next band practice.

It only took four attempts, but I finally got a matched pair of #ElectroVoice #CS15e vintage condenser microphones together. In his later years, this model was made famous by Elvis Presley.

I didn't know if I could do it, but I think I found the world's most boring book. #locallibrarybooksale

Finally got a coat of stain and toner lacquer on my vintage #slingerland concert snare. The stain was a combo of General Finishes Nutmeg and Candelite. The toner was a light coat of Mohawk medium brown, just to unify the color. Can't wait to start on the final finish.

Gave the edges on my 1963 #slingerland concert snare a little love. Didn't go as far as leveling and putting new edges on but smoothed them out a bit.

Working on refinishing this 1963 #slingerland 14x7 3-Ply snare drum. Original clear finish had tons of scratches, dings, etc so getting a whole new clear coat. Already sanded, wet ironed, bleached, and pore filled. Now just regluing some loose areas of the re-rings.

Ouf and trying to use synonyms to search is basically out the window. :( In this new video I'm trying to search via the word Historic, which I have as a synonym for "Drawing - Historical". Anyway, thanks Marc!

When entering text into a Managed Metadata field, the field is being incorrectly auto completed based on the first couple of letters you type. Then subsequent characters are added onto that. In my video I'm trying to type "Preliminary" which should then provide me results which start with that word

Hey what a nice surprise! Decided to open up my #rodemicrophones #K2 tube condenser mic and found that the previous owner had upgraded the generic Chinese tube with a #Telefunken black diamond E88CC-TK 6922! Nice! #microphones #tubemic

I recently built some #custommicrophone s using headphone drivers. This isn't a new or unique technique, as one of Steve Albini's favorite mics used an off the shelf driver. Still need to do a proper test and refinement, but they sound pretty decent. PS - No real #e906 was harmed making these.

My best attempt at a budget @asavage.bsky.social Sortimo-esque storage system for all my bits and bobs.

Huge thanks to Hammond Mfg for sending over some replacement transformer bell covers for this mid-60s, early #traynor #yvm1 tube amp. The originals were completely trashed by poor shipping and left the transformer dangling.

Little-June loving the sun. #hotbeans #suncat #cutecat

Finally got my #Revox #B790 #turntable up and running after over a decade of just sitting. Could still need some work, but good to have access to my vinyl again. #vintageaudio

Sun lovers. #suncat #cutecats

Cuddle cat.

Little-June getting some sun.

First post on BlueSky, so had to make it festive. Who doesn't love a shark mug filled with tropical alcohol.
