37-116 Restoration
#53

OK - by popular demand, a picture Icon_smile .

The cabinet's in pretty decent shape. I cleaned it and applied some wax.

I still need to make some station tabs. I have an old dial I'll carve up into tabs. The plan is to cut out the tabs, make decals with the call letters on them, apply them to the tabs and coat them with something, lacquer/polyurethane...

The sound quality is really good. I need an antenna. There's just a short piece of wire hanging off of the back now (that sad, white wire curled up on the ground).

I have a TV I'll probably finish next. Then it's probably on to the 37-690 whose cabinet is sitting in our dining room. It's way to heavy to move to the basement.

   

Can't think of anything witty.
