Getting some of the ugly gone
#5

Terry;
  The grilles in those model 84s are probably routed to, if not then then used some 1930s version of a RotoZip to cut them. You can tell by the rounded out corners that they used a rotary tool and a jig to cut them, but by then the molded edges around speaker grilles cutouts that sets like the 80 and 81 had were going out of fashion in favor of ones with a 90 degree edge.

Arran
