Golddalek Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Very dedicated....I need to learn how to cast parts, too. The results look factory. Well done, my man. ...what a cool toy. The engineering IDEAL toy makers incorporated into this ASTRO BASE is awe inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennetzel Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Very nice restoration. I've been looking for one of these for a while and it's hard to find any close to working. You did a super job on this one...looks brand new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckalkhof Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 You guys are always so nice Thanks for the positive comments. I enjoy working on these older toys because they are truly from another time. There is always something interesting to be found in thier design that seems to be lacking in toys of today.

Phil R Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Nice restoration and presentation. Debussy's Clair De Lune is one of my all time favorite compositions. I used it 20 years ago when I made a video sampling of my restoration work using morphing before and after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 What a classy repair job. You've nailed those moulding techniques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckalkhof Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 Thanks again guys. Love the patent drawing. Phil - I always have a hard time picking nice music. I fall back on the classics I think because that's usually what I have playing in the background when I'm putting around with this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
