Philco 116B cabinet work
#9

Have the cabinet almost completely stripped now, just a few small spots that are resisting my efforts, but they'll come along by and by.

Now that it's so close, I'm REALLY having a hard time understanding why they painted it that gawdawful color:

   

Tomorrow, I'll take my GOOD camera out there and get another shot. For some reason the cheapie Ricoh I use for snapshots is really making it look washed out, and it really looks much better than the above pic.

Suggestions for working up a replacement for the bottom trim in front?
