66B (looks like a MB)
#9

Did the grain filling a couple of days ago but wasn't happy with the results. It made the fnt look too dark. Sanded it out and got it looking much better. Got it all toned and edges painted black but manged to sand though the toner on the top so have to go back over that. Then on to a few coats of sealer, sanding, and gloss. Oh still have the wooden top/front trim and wooden dial escutcheon.

I was down in the basement in my dad's

Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
