So a bunch of years ago I bought a model 21 on epay. The cabinet was pretty rough as it needed a rear arch, front panel, base board, and base trim. Got all or these parts together only to find after that the surround was badly rotted behind the trim. I don't really have the tools or experience to build a new surround so the project went on hold.
Time past and I found a model 70 cabinet on cl that was in reasonable shape and reasonable price. As far as I can tell the 21 and the 70 cabinets are identical except for the front panel and the holes for the chassis in the base board.
More time past due to personal issues and health so it's been on hold for abt 10yrs. So I noticed that the front arch veneer is cracking slightly. Kinda odd in that it's not a curved area but flat.
The few days I've been stripping the cabinet and cleaning the gunk out of the cracks and crevices. I'm surprised that the veneer is very thin paper thin so sanding going to be minimal. It's about ready for a few coats of sanding sealer so I can see what areas need some work. Here's a pic of the original 21 cabinet. About the only things that were any good are the frt arch and columns. https://www.flickr.com/photos/53710524@N...ateposted/
And a few pics of the early model 70 cabinet ready for some ss.
