Philco 19 cabinet veneer issues
#5

I have taken it apart and begun to see what I can do for it. The moldings are in good shape, and except for the front plywood by the dial and knobs, the base is solid. I'm going to try re-gluing the plywood, then get out the steam iron and see how close I can get that gap to close.

I can easily put down a new veneer on the back and sides in one big piece. What I have available is much thinner than the veneer that is on it now, so I was wondering how I could get it level in the first place. I'm guessing it is French walnut?

The chassis is missing the electrolytic cans, but is otherwise in fantastic shape. No rust, and the shadow meter winding has close to 1K resistance, so definitely worth the effort.
