The 39-30 arrived the other day having survived the shipping process. The chassis work is found at this link. The cabinet is in need of a refinish and some loose veneer needs fixing but the main problem is the two sides of the cabinet have separated from the rest of the cabinet. The following pic is of the cabinet on its side looking from the back. You can see the separation where the the groove and tongue are separated. Pressing hard with the heel of my hand does not force the two pieces together but I don't think anyone has tried fixing it before so I may just need more clamping power. So... the question for you guys who have much more cabinet experience than I do... should I just try forcing it closed with clamps or try pulling the whole cabinet apart and putting it back together. Its pretty solid except for this. Thanks!!!
