Hi everyone,

My ∗upstairs∗ CS-80 is right in the corner of my studio and with all this snow (now melting on the roof) has had quite a scare. I seem to have developed a leak right above the thing. Aaargh!

Luckily my home made shelving and all the other stuff which normally resides on top if it was not on there, and the lid was up as I was working on her the past few weeks so moving her out was a LOT quicker than it would have been otherwise.

Also the rack was up so what water did manage to get inside didn't actually get onto any circuit boards, just a small puddle right at the rear air-vents. It did however run down the open lid and into some of the sliders. I must admit to panicking - but I think I managed to catch it just in time. Got a hairdryer onto it straight away - time will tell. Need to get the roof sorted before I do anything else.


Totally forgot about my broken foot during that episode, but it sure hurt. afterwards. Anyone here ever tried moving a CS-80 on one leg?


Talk about a Merry Christmas...!?
Cheers,
TOM
