custom zenith console project (FINISHED!)
#22

Well this is it, one of a kind. Completely not done but very close , will have to do some cabinet touch up and maybe change grill cloth out to something else don't know yet on that. There is a little compound in a few crevices that needs to be taken care of and needs to be waxed after a few weeks , have to let the lacquer cure out before I do any waxing and being careful not to get into any crevices, its very hard to get out once in there. The sound of this set is amazing , sure am glad I did it because it looks wonderful and only one in the world that I know of, like this. No shabby chick or butcher job on this one folks. High quality at its best on this antique radio, so so smooth its like glass just like a high dollar piano, my car refinishing skills really paid off on this one .Thanks for looking and I will start another radio project soon maybe the 37-650px Icon_eek Icon_eek Icon_eek Icon_eek Icon_eek Icon_eek Icon_eek
