Philco 20 Restoration Chronicles
#2

Nightmare!

Thought this was going to be a somewhat easier restoration but it is not going well. There are about 10 breaks in the grill and some very bad repairs too.

I began cleaning the grill that has about 1/8 of an inch of wax build up all over the inside of the grill.

   

Then As I am gleaning the grill starts to fall apart in my hands. Someone stuffed the grill with wood putty where there was wood missing and we know glue doesn't stick well to putty by itself. So now I have lots of grill work to do.
   

I began by cutting new wood strips, fitting and placing and now that part of the grill is gluing and clamped.
