I would like to do some veneer repair in a few spots on the top of my 40-180.
Can anyone suggest a place where I can purchase the proper veneer to use.
From some previous posts I have read, I believe I need Walnut ?
The cabinet has been shellacked at some time in it's life but I need to repair these issues first.
I measured the thickness at around .030"
I appreciate any assistance with this, this is my first post and my first Philco.
Thank you,
Jerry
