37-600 Faux finish
#1

Since I work in a factory and can't take my work home with me, this stay at home time has given me the time to tackle things like trying my hand at re-creating a missing faux finish on the front panel of my 37-600 using toners. This was the set I got at the WARCI meet March 15, possibly the last radio club swap meet that will be held for some time yet. Outside of missing the fact that the half inch wide woodgrain edge went around the sides too and not just on top and bottom, I think I got a reasonable facsimile. Here's what I started with:
