I like your videos you do! You might be interested to know that Technics double decks from the early 90’s as well as some Denon models have plastic gears which crack also. You’re better off avoiding the auto reverse models that use flip heads (some earlier units have a fixed head system). Keep up the great work!
I have to agree with the other viewers that the purchase of a 3-D Printer would allow for a better work flow and a reduction in your stress levels. I am learning that there's not a decent auto-reverse cassette deck unless you go with the Akai deck that physically flipped the tape over or (a brief shudder) a Nakamichi. Do enjoy December and relax so you can prepare for a New Year. Thanks for the videos!
Yeah... those old devices... more and more plastic stuff just breaks or are broken. Thants nice that you find replacements in the end - i think you will get it working again. Thanks for sharing service procedures! Cheers mate!
Traffic is insane in NY, Long Island is basically at a complete standstill worst I’ve ever seen in 67 years - The best thing you can do is electronic projects inside 👍
what about the teac v770? how much more work does that one need to be fully operational? same about this one, i nearly brought one of these decks, kinda glad i didnt now after seeing this

Well done to get so far..

I actually got the gears two days ago - they sent them by courier to get around the strike. Will do another video in January to see how they work out.
yep! that's Y I didn't buy an autoreverse one

I've never been there but my folks have - I think driving in NYC would be about the last thing I'd ever want to do. Except maybe driving in Boston.
AWIA made some alright stuff, but some of it was complicated
You can just 3D print it, it is not a precise gear from what it looks like..

It needed nothing more so it's been donated to the charity thrift store. Should be off making a new owner happy now.
