I would die for a spray booth like that. Very nice job.

Just out of curiousity is he spraying the toner in those photos? That looks like an automotive spray booth by the way, one you can drive cars into.

I hope he puts several nice coats of glass laquer on it, old radios just don't look right with a matte or satin finish, they had more of a shiny but burnished look to them originally.
