Here, Peng is seen working on a part from an old phonograph.
"It is something I love, and something I'd like to be doing for a long time," said Peng, who is trained as a piano tuner - he also teaches piano - and self-taught as a phonograph repairman.
"There's no school for this," he said.
The price for repairs varies according to the job and the parts needed, Peng said. Replacing a spring for the motor costs $55, repairing a sound box $50.
