Just received the assembled photo from the guy whom I did it for - he went to some cabinet maker he knew to clean up the cabinet (it had paint blotches on it etc).

Well, maybe not the best job I've seen but it sure looks heck of a lot better than what I saw before.

Yes, it is nice.
I think it could use some sort of lacquer coat but then it is not my radio, though the guy agrees it needs something to give it some gloss.
