i'm on my way to antique radios forum to see if I can find some empties.

Why are you going there, can't you ask here??? We do have a Wanted forum as well as a For Sale or Trade forum.

There is a swap meet twice a year in Kutztown, Pennsylvania. They have a tradition of burning unwanted console cabinets at each meet. All of you guys who want to build these things should flock there every meet and grab every unwanted console cabinet you can, since they are free for the taking. Just a thought.
