I guess it would be my early-70's 9" Philco-Ford B&W. The horizontal hold pot popped out the circuit board on one side. My Uncle West (who repaired audio equipment all his life) showed me how to solder, and when I went home I couldn't figure how to get the chassis pulled. The bottom of the plastic cabinet is covered with vent slats and Uncle West said "hell, just use the iron to melt off the slat right below the pot and resolder it through the bottom." So that's what I did, and the darn thing still works today.
