Ok thanks, I guess I just needed to read a few threads to point the way. It appears using stain is "bad juju". Constantine paste wood filler seems recommended for the porous grain. Then, Mohawk Perfect Brown over all, Extra Dark Walnut, built up on edges and trim. But can anyone suggest the color for the lighter toned inner face of the model 84?
