Philco 38-690 restoration
#13

I went through the chassis, replacing all of the electrolytic capacitors, and fixing quite a few cold solder joints left by the hack. It does not yet work, but I'll get it going.

I've done more on the cabinet, after using acetone to remove excess stain residue I could only see in the sunlight, and re-dong the top because I messed-up one area, then spraying Mohawk dark walnut to get the coloring I wanted on the top and sides. The dark edges and vertical slats are finished with Mohawk Dark Sapele Brown. Next is just more clear and wet sanding.
