I found this 1975 Soundesign 3566 flip-clock at the thrift store down the street.
Paid them $3.93 for it and took it home.
Cosmetically, this thing is in fairly good shape for a 40+year-old flip clock. There aren’t any major scratches. All but one of the control knobs are account for. However, the switch legend has been worn away in some areas.
Mechanically, the clock appears to turn as it should, but for some reason, the motor isn’t running. The flip panels of the flip clock are all present and accounted for.
Electrically, the switches have connectivity issues and have to be jostled around. The radio turner seems to be in great shape but the volume and tone knobs make a horrible noise when moved.
The restoration starts with a complete dissection...
The dishwasher trick always works great. But (as always) all the electricals of the flip clock must be removed BEFORE sticking the case in the dishwasher.
The last thing was to apply a VERY long water slide decal. One issue that popped up was that the decal shrunk just a little. If I applied a decal this size again, I would increase the size of the artwork by about 101%.
Overall, the flip clock came out looking brand new!
One last thing to note: I have been looking in thrift shops for the last 20 years for one of these. This is the first flip clock I have run across in ANY thrift style shop. Leave a comment if you found one in a thrift shop around you.
