In this video I attempt to repair the only twin-tape Walkman that Sony made, the WM-W800 from 1985. If you have a walkman that needs a new belt – you can find a link to the store below.

Enquiries about the clock – Here’s the video I made about it back in November 2016 If you missed this you might want to check through the back catalogue, as I’ve uploaded over 400 videos.

The video is a heavily compressed version of events. In reality this was shot over two weeks and approximately 5 hours. The machine was taken apart a total of three times – twice after the reassembly shown in the video in an attempt to rectify the playback fault, without success. As mentioned in the video there were other issues such as speed fluctuations due to sticky pinch rollers…so it was determined that enough time had been spent on this project and this was as far as this repair will go. I am now on to making the next video.
