Hello,
i just bought a Grundig GBM 125 at ebay kleinanzeigen for 11€! Yay. It's said to be a beyerdynamic 260 OEM ribbon capsule (just one ribbon)
I had some trouble opening the microphone basket and the housing because its held together with little steel pins i had to push inside. Unfortunately i cant get the pins out, so they are lost in the plastic (maybe ABS) housing. One pin i had to bore out carefully so the hole is now a little bigger and will have to be filled (maybe epoxy).
The mic is working fine, got a new XLR cable, all insides were left as they were.
Any ideas how i could replace the pins so that it would be easy to reopen the mic? Like a glue that melts on warming or anything similar?
