Philco 40-145 Cabinet Repair
#7

Thanks! Umm.. I bought the radio about 10 days ago.. maybe two weeks. The first photo was taken then. The radio sat around for a few days, then I did the chassis first.. that took a couple of days. Started working on the cabinet three days ago.. I stripped it on Monday, glued the wood to the dial on Tues, glued the veneer on yesterday and did the rest today. I started working on it at 8am today (sanding the veneer, I had already shaped the wood piece), and I finished up right before I posted this thread. It was pretty quick. It's a small radio and it doesn't get a piano finish.. so no grain filler or any polishing needed.
