I took a 9608 apart just to see what's inside.

I was expecting a gerbil running on a wheel. Maybe I should get more training on how phones work.

Thank you for posting the Reassembler - I started in this industry in 1983, at an antique store that specialized in old phones. I was the bench tech, refurbishing and rewiring wooden wall phones, metal candlestick phones, and metal and bakelite desk sets. Here's a "key sender", a type of automatic dial, where you typed out the telephone number on keys that look like they came off of a typewriter, and the dial spun around itself internally pulsing out the number. Long way from there to our modern VoIP phones!

Primary reason to open up the phone:
Pure curiosity.
I come from a time where you had to fix stuff...not just throw it away and buy a new on.

Secondary reason:
Now I know how easy/hard it will be to open up the phone and interface to the speaker when the crazy request comes along from a customer who wants all the sounds that comes from the phone's speaker to come out an amplified speaker someplace.

Totally enjoyed the "Re-assembler"

Big spender, I would use a 1603 for that kind of butchery

Really?

The only thing a 1603 is good for is to lit the BBQ..

Now they've remove the hexene labels and gone with the international version, the fire's safe for cooking too!
