Default Re: AVO CT38 Multimeter

That matting material looks rather like the stuff I've seen used to pack military equipment in a transit case, it seems to be made of rubber-sprayed hairy fibres of some sort. Horse hair? Coconut fibres sound quite plausible. Certainly not asbestos IMHO.

The quality of manufacture is a prime reason why I am only interested in military equipment. The average piece of vintage domestic electronics just looks like junk to me, a rat's nest of junk. Of course there are good reasons, horses for courses, it is made to be affordable. But it just doesn't inspire me!
