    Default TD 124 bubble

    One of my TD 124s has a dried up bubble level.

    Now, before Marco chips in with something rude about it being my age etc, what can I do to refill it or replace ?

    Dominic at Northwest Analogue has managed to salvage and refill a dry TD-124 bubble level, so it's certainly possible.

    Hi Dave,

    Dom at NW Analogue managed to do this on a table being restored I believe.

    Not sure how though

    why worry when you can buy exact new ones so cheaply, there's a place in shefield sells the same ones, newer looking, but the same.
    I had a deck with no bubble from new.
    i set the deck level with a good spirit level and fitted the new one on blue tack
    its not moved and looks fine...
    I 've found blue tack seems to harden with age, i checked it the end of last year, after being fitted about 3 years ago... was still spot on
    i think they where a couple of £ each. i bought 5 but the spares have been given away.

    there no such thing as audiophile quality in bubbles !
