Back in my youth, during my initiation into things radio and electronics I recall a set I was given, don't remember make and model, that needed repair. Found a resistor that had broken in two which I didn't have a replacement for so I set a salvaged potentiometer to the correct value and soldered that in place !! Used the set like that for a few years and it then disappeared in a move so could still be out there somewhere ! Always wondered what a future owner might think of that bodge !
