1930s Stewart-Warner Tombstone Radio need help identifying model number
#13

Thanks for the help, I was able to make an old wire grommet that was about the same size as the original rubber tire work by wrapping it in friction tape.

Now another question concerning the cabinet, it looks like the cabinet may have had some sort of toner lacquer finish on it at some point in time and from what I could see on some other cabinets of the same model where the finish on them was in better shape than on mine, seems to confirm that assumption.

What colors of toner lacquer should I use to restore the finish on this cabinet? I currently have in my possession Van Dyke Brown and another color of Toner Lacquer I can't remember the name of.

the shade of Lacquer Toner used on this cabinet looks like a darker shade of brown or maybe almost a blackish color and it appears it was used on the base trim and on the top and sides and the knobs looked to a light brown color Toner Lacquer used on it and the lighter parts of the cabinet were just natural wood stain.
