Reminds me of when I hand re-wound the main coil in my tube radio because the mice ate it for lunch. I don't know what it is that drives us to fix it given what we have on hand, but it's pretty awesome to hack something together and have it work. Sure, we can buy new, but where's the fun in that?
(Moreso in my case, since it was my first coil wind, from scratch, by hand, using wire salvaged from a CRT yoke). Goofed up the polarity, and did something that looked like this to fix that, but hot damn, it worked without any IF alignment!)
