I was thinking.............. UH OH ;D

I Have a 500 base with leather feet. I was going to drill out the rubber on this one and put the 302's there until I get around to it. My getting around may take some time. I want it to look more apropriate and when I get to it i will have the feet replaced.

Kenny;
Great find, I'm very jealous.
I would leave the conversion to Dennis, unless you've done it before. I would hate to see the drill bit grab and send the phone to the floor. There's no hurry.

Well I guess I am going to wait. I cant imagine how terrible it would be. It hurts thinking about it ;D

I have been cleaning the Network contacts today and the black plastic shined up good.

Very nice Kenny.  Looking at the photo of the ringer, I've n ever seen the C2A, or any other designation stamped on that part of the ringer.  Anyone else seen such a stamping?

Ringers were stamped with the date on the coil and model on the casting in this position until mid-1951.  They apparently realized it was more efficient to put the stampings together.

Nice job Kenny. A great seller and a great buyer--doesn't get much better. That guy sold me a 410 that rests on my work desk now.

Kenny, you are very welcome.
I have the C2A stamp in the same place on my 12/50 ringer that came with my 52 501.

What other differences can you see between C2A and C4A ringers?
