Hi, I bought the Edison Diamond Disc bank that Vince offered to the list a few weeks ago and it's a beauty.
I have a question that I am hoping a list member can answer: Can anyone describe the key that fit this bank or even better send me a picture? The lock mechanism is there and my local locksmith made a working key. I am interested in the real look. Thanks in advance.

Records can then be individually washed, dried and re-sleeved. I don't know if tape can be washed and dried, or how you would do it. Just drying may save the equipment too, but after it is dry, moving things like motors and switches probably should be re-lubricated with the proper oils/greases.

(CBI) Listserv>> Our radio station's storage area was steamed in a sauna from a broken steam pipe for probably 7 days before we were informed last week. We have a full complement of high-quality used analog studio equipment (an entire disassembled old studio) and a few hundred 78s that were too wet to handle until today as the room was dried with a dehumidifier. They are still damp, so it's time to do what we need to do to save what can be saved. What should we do to save the 78s? What should we do to save the reel tape? And the audio equipment?
