I love the Scott Tasman cabinet - I think it is one of Scott's best looking sets. I probably should have held on to the AW 23 and Tasman that I had. Oh well, maybe after retirement, I'll pursue another....
Anyway, Fred, I am sure you will do your usual fine work with this one!

Very nice Fred. I always like to see your work. I have not used the Mohawk grain filler.
I have used the kind that you spread on with flat spreader and wait until it is almost dry, then use the burlap.
is Mohawk similar in application?

Hello Dan, I quess Mohawk is about the same in regards to application . I wipe it off with fresh burlap before it dries hard like wax a car. I let it haze over then wipe it smooth, then later sand it off with 240 after it has dried overnight, clean and smooth out the crevices as show in pictures, that also before it gets hard.

It looks terrible!
I will surely take it off your hands 
You will have to show me how you did the veneer. Veneer on large areas scares me....

The top of cabinet has severe water damage and the substrate veneer is messed up also, part of the substrate will be sectioned and repaired and all new veneer on top. The entire cabinet will be stripped and refinished to customers specs . Should look like new and will be done to factory appearance. I have done two others of this model type but was done in high gloss piano finish this one will not be gloss but a satin finish 
. So here are some pictures of this radio and some of the work I am doing, will post progression on this cabinet till work is complete and many of you guys may benefit from this.
