In part four of my idanno how many parts series of the nostalgia Heathkit IT-12 build I set out to get the rest of the sub assemblies done and find that I have to come up with some of my own solutions. All part of the Heathkit experience. I talk about Magic Eye Tubes and some other stuff too. Enjoy!

I'm here for the screw driver in the thumbnail…I have a "thing" for power drivers. Started with my "wowstick" and then to the "wowstick SD" which is the full sized wowstick,but next I'm lookin into a "Miniware es15" cuz it has an impact feature. Whatever u have looks pretty serious
She's my best Fran , who else can eliminate my daily question marks ?
Wow..
OK on to part 5
I love this build
Thanks Fran

Yup, UL-508A control panel shop builder, doing coaxle the same way for years and work's very well. It's truly a very nice and clean way of termination for terminals and landing shielded wires… 🙂
Super sexy.
This was relaxing to watch/listen to. I've built 6 or 7 Heathkits in my time in the early 70's and 80's DX-70B transmitter with matching HG-10B VFO & HR-10 receiver, HD-1418 active audio filter, a digital clock and a weather station. There might have been more. They're back in business but not like the old days.
Theres a special tool for opening up the braid and pushing the center conductor thru said opening. I use it a lot at my job and yet can't remember the name of this tool🤦🏻♂️.
Awesome Fran!
