Damn autocorrect. Fixed.Halter, maybe?
If you need some thin wire you could try stripping some out of a USB cable. Might be a little thicker and easier to handle than the super thin stuff.nope, not usually, It just runs from the headshell down through the tone arm and then makes a 90° down through the bottom.
Next thing is to locate a set of snap ring pliers with some long attachments to it that'll allow me to get down the end of that sleeve/well so that I can pull that sleeve off. That will allow me to get down into the area where the wires are broke off to see if all five wires are accessible, and have enough to splice some new magnet wires on.If you need some thin wire you could try stripping some out of a USB cable.

I'm assuming from all of the discussion about replacing the wires that a new tone arm isn't easily/cheaply available?Next thing is to locate a set of snap ring pliers with some long attachments to it that'll allow me to get down the end of that sleeve/well so that I can pull that sleeve off.

Last one on Fleabay went for $200 and was a cosmetic disaster.I'm assuming from all of the discussion about replacing the wires that a new tone arm isn't easily/cheaply available?
the famous Youtube lady "Itchy Boots" that travels the world on back roads, solo, did her first season on a RE twin 400cc and they sold tons of bikes after that. She is now on Season 6 starting in South America, heading to Alaska. Has 1.3 million subscribers

nope, that's the previous tonearm. It looks like that tone arm can accept some normal gauge wire, something in the 22 gauge size. Mine is magnet wire in the 34-40 gauge size.
PM me if you want to sell any of the Rush stuff!Went to the annual "100 mile yard sale".
Picked up an airbrush compressor and a Heathkit power supply for $5 each. It just about killed me, but I had to pass on a Kitchen Aid mixer in great shape for $15. Agreements/budget, and it was still very early in the morning.
We picked up a lot of other stuff to turn for a profit, my wife is becoming a great reseller using her time around our son's college classes. She's developed a good eye for stuff I'd never look at, the first two items she nabbed for a dollar or two should net $30-$50 each. The compressor may have to go, we'll see. I have a full-size compressor and paint/detail guns, so no great loss if it's too profitable to keep.
But I couldn't pass on these LP's. One batch of 12 for $10, many of which are promo versions, and one batch of 8 for $16. Unpacking, I realize I left the Zappa with London Symphony Orchestra behind by mistake. It's long gone now:

I'll sell a select few of them, and the cost of the keepers will be covered!

How in the world does a 32-in monitor fall over while you're not home?Also came home after to find that my 32" monitor had fallen over and was now a large piece of junk. Another order to Costco...

Looks like the last time I adjusted the tilt it was not perfectly stable. That's all I can think of, as I haven't adjusted tilt for a long time (until that morning).How in the world does a 32-in monitor fall over while you're not home?
