Philco Secretary
#1

After getting this at Kutztown in Spring 2012, it languished on the round-to pile until a few weeks ago. The major problem was a huge crack on the bottom that lead over to a loose chunk in the corner (thus its $3 price).

I did a thorough epoxy/fiberglas repair to the crack.

The outside then needed some epoxy to fill the outside crack residue.

Then a tape-up to protect stuff.

And then the finished look. the color was the closest that I could find. I can live with it. You can easily add a zero to the price that I paid. Icon_wink .....Labor of love again.
