After two years my 118 is done. Came out pretty good. Original grille cloth. It plays very nicely. Someone had modified the set to work with a loop antenna. Fortunately, the antenna coil was still there, just disconnected.

I see only one image - it looks like maybe there were others?
But whatever - I can see you did a beautiful job!
Beautiful job! I have one of those around here somewhere to get to some day. Hope there's no faux finish on it anywhere. Ed
Thanks!
All real wood on this one.

Only one. I don't know how that other stuff got in there or how to remove it.
Congratulations ! It looks great.
That turned out beautiful
...I still only see one image...
But hey, Steve, congratulations on a great job!

I've been guilty of doing that,
but I leave the antenna coil for a subsequent owner to restore it later if they want to, just like with your radio. I sometimes use a ferrite rod hidden inside.
Beautiful! High on my list of Philcos to have, kinda surprised it's eluded me so long. But, here's to hoping!
