Walton Cab lives again.
#1

Here,s a Walton cabinet I recently refinished for a forum member from the other side Icon_eek . I have been refinishing radio cabinets every weekend for quite some time and I should be refinishing a rare Zenith 16a63 stratosphere here over the summer and another rare console. I also will be refinishing some radios and clocks from Decopobia company in Florida. It looks like there are some folks out there that love my refinishing skills. That there will help me later down the road when I retire from Paint and body shop work. I think that between SS and refinishing radio cabinets and some antique furniture that should sustain me and till I kick the bucket.
