I'm trying how to install grill cloth for my 37-116.

I don't particularly want to glue it where it would be visible in the center opening in the cabinet. But, I'm not sure that's possible. The cloth will pass over the two, side, "clarifiers" where there's no surface to glue it to. The original cloth has the chevron pattern repeated on the sides so it could be simply be glued along the edges of the board. I roughly outlined the center opening in the photo so I can sit here at my desk and stare at it...

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've actually thought of putting a piece of wood across the clarifier openings to give me something to glue it to. Looks like the clarifiers are covered some by the cabinet anyway.

   

Thanks,
Greg

If this helps you sort it out just remember 10,000 mmfd or pf = .01 mfd. So 5,000mmfd = .005 mfd.Radioroslyn — 04:23 PM
