We didn't have Heathkit, and the parts were incredibly hard to find - so some came from my dad's friend, others were picked at the city dump - there were several electronic companies near us, including the now famous Svetlana, so their dump trucks always brought tons of treasures. My mother was always so happy to see me come home loaded with all that "good stuff". :)
Over the years I have built maybe a dozen tape decks. Some were silly looking and almost ugly, but they played music. Others were finished, nice looking ones, which I later sold to happy customers.
