Tnx guys,
I really didn't what to invest $42 for the "replacement decals" as I have seen them on other sets and wasn't impressed. If you look closely that the before and after pics on there web site the color is way off. The original is sort of a mottled caramel, their rendition is mahogany red. To me it sticks out like a sort thumb. Along w/that issue the one I saw had an adhesion problem along the outside edges. Think of doing all the cabinet work to have the decal peel up after a few months. Disclaimer this was abt 4 yrs ago so the company may have improved their product line since then.
I did leather repair for 27yrs (for work) match color and textures so doing the wood touch up is kinda fun. This is the original cabinet the chassis came in.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
