[Phono-L] new toy and parts search

[John Selph]

I don't know if it would work here, but years ago when I worked in Law
Enforcement, if we had to work a scene that had a bad stench, we would throw
a couple of handfuls of ground coffee (just coffee - no water) in a pan and
put it on the stove over medium heat.  The smell of the coffee would cover,
and quite often eliminate, any of the odors.  I would think heating the
grounds up in an old pot, then pour them into a metal lid and set inside the
case, might do the trick.
HTH,
John

If I wanted to watch Nascar I'd flush a bag of Skittles down the toilet and
bet on which color would win.

Try dry baking soda.  Open the box like the old paper single serve 
cereal boxes and put it in the case and cover it.  It will take a while.
