The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Who's young 15 to 35/50 ? on the forum and actively repairing ? And can collect a load of stuff at some time after the virus ends ? Or in the future ?

Me. I'm 21...but I'm in the United States.

I'm excluded, somewhat the wrong side of 50 ... Alex Kirtley comes immediately to mind - highly enthusiastic and a brilliantly talented craftsman.

Indeed, I'm 22, colour me intrigued

I was 15 when I joined the forum and am now 17, joined almost exactly 2 years ago, I don't really have a good picture of me with my collection, but once I finish with the 6 or 7 projects I have going on, I will likely gather everything together to take one. When they will all be done I'm not sure

Martin,

Take it from somebody who's 55, the projects will never be done.

I used to be young, but that was long ago. I am a member of the Pepsi Generation.

I'm younger than I will be tomorrow.

I will be 73 this year and have been collecting for 60 years. Contributing to this forum helps me to keep the little grey cells active.

I'm 30; I've been on this forum since I was 12. My tools aren't here, but they could be. What's the story?
