10 radio cabinet restoration chronicles
#1

I need to get some of my cabinets done so I took 10 empty cabinets and went to work this week..

I am working on an GE Mantle set, Jackson bell swan, General motors 4052, Sparton 65, Zenith 705, Automatic 613X, Utah speaker cabinet, Kadette 87, and an RCA 44. Something else too... Hmmm

I took the ones with solid cabinets and no veneer issues and Stripped them.

I find that veneering before stripping helps color the new veneer to match better when stripping.


The Swan needs a lot of veneer repair , gluing and an arch installed. The RCA 44 needs some gluing and the Sparton 65 needs gluing and veneer repairs.
