Default Re: Pye "Tulip" mic - how to get inside??

I may try the T-cut thing...

Right now I'm wrestling over what to do with the tatty diecast base-bit; keep it as it is, or strip and repaint? I've not been able to find a paint that matchesd; Plasti-Kote 'Oxford Green' is too dark, it's not 'Landrover Green' either. Closest I've been able to find is Ford "Forest Green" but it's still too datk.

A friend has promised me some NATO-Green paint but it's brush-on not spray, and to be honest I've never really mastered the skill of brushing paint to get a decently-smooth finish.
