You can see a film how all our cartriges are given new life.
At you tube you can see this film how Axel is working and he is telling about his work too.

Thanks for the link Frede, nice to see Axel looking good and in good heals, and doing his amazing work.
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
Yes, it's great to see in real who this person person is behind the name Axel.
But he's not "fast die einzige in die welt" as said in the film is he?
I sold him lots of defect MMC cartridges via Ebay (at least, he was always the highest bidder).
Now its Frede's turn to make a clip on Ebay! And after that you Soren!
Brengen & Ophalen
Wow that's nice to see the Man Himself in his workshop! Great link, thanks Frede!
I thought he was younger, but how could he be if you think about it?
I for one would also like to see your magic at work...

Nearly the only one in the world, is the translation, the only other one I know of who makes nearly all kinds of pickups is Soundsmith, Benny makes only a certain kind of MMCs and not all. What I dont like is that in the film you cant see a pupil, its absolutely essential that he leave this art to someone who can take over after him.
As for me or Frede being film stars, My Lumix is able to shoot videos, but I have only 2 hand, these 2 hands I use for working, and to put me in class with Axel and Frede, is totally off, I´m a happy amateur, Axel and Frede are artists.

Same thing for Frede, at least, that's what he told me. There will be a time that artists should transfer all their knowledge and expertise to the younger ones!

Its our duty as parents and as craft men to educate the younger ones, In Germany they still educate craft men under the Master system, where in DK they stopped using that system some years ago, today in DK they go for "higher" education, meaning university degrees, not all students are capable or have the talent for theoretic educations, and they are today in most countries lost in educations, and end up as grass root workers. The Master system pics up students with talent for practical educations, like plumbers, electricians, mechanics and the like, and that gives you craft men that build a bridge between uneducated workers and the higher educations. The talented craft men are few today, just take a look in the forums here, always the same complains over workshops and service, the art of repairing is getting lost, also because of the throw away culture that exist today.
I did my duty as parent and craft man, most of my pupils are still in the printing business, of my 4 sons, one is carpenter, one is chief nurse, one is electrician/electro mechanic, and the last one is studying at the university. Except for the nurse they went working in other areas, but their basic educations was a leg to stand on and get started.
Well said Soren, I admire people with practical skills and craftmanship!
That's great, wish there were English subs :-(Would love to see how B&O produced the mmcxx range of carts in the 70's / 80's... I wonder if there is any archive footage in the vaults...?
