I wont post any clips as thats against some rules somewhere 
But he fixed a loose base on the AZ1 rectifier by pouring in thin super glue. So much of it that it ran out the bottom of the valve and glued it into the socket as well.
Later he didnt have a good output valve and tried an unsuitable replacement and then found the AZ1 was too low emmision to supply enough current for it anyway. Ended up patching in a transistor amp and psu from an old cassette player.
Yes! wouldnt have done French Polish either.
Not the standard I would expect to have featured in the particular Mag but as long as he enjoyed himself thats maybe all that matters
