Thank all of you for the advice and information! Upon more careful inspection of the cabinet, I've decided to re-do the entire thing. (Maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment, but I think I can do this!) I'll strip the cabinet tomorrow.
I've read several threads and I know there are probably as many ways to do this as there are people on the forum. My plan is to strip it, grain-fill, toner, then numerous finish coats. I'm I missing anything critical? I've read various things about "sealing" the cabinet, but I'm not sure when this is necessary and with what product.

You may have to start further back with your signal injection at the IF signal grid, then tune the second IF transformer...RodB — 10:28 AM
