I posted a pic of the radiola model 48 I purchased recently.
I went ahead and refinished the cabinet. Thought I would post a before and after pic.[Image: http://i1336.photobucket.com/albums/o654...d7006f.jpg][Image: http://i1336.photobucket.com/albums/o654...b65013.jpg][Image: http://i1336.photobucket.com/albums/o654...e5fd8c.jpg]

Thank you morzh. I will have a question about the circuitry of this radio. I will start a new post soon. Hope there is some radiola experts here.

Nice work,
Gonna look fine with a philco cathedral sitting atop. Icon_mrgreen

Be sure not to put anything on top of it until the finish cures! I made that mistake once. 2-3 weeks, not even a doily.
