Ron's Cabinet Work for the 2018 Season
#16

I had to work this morning, but this afternoon I completely stripped one cabinet.

[Image: http://www.philcoradio.com/images/phorum...T2_009.jpg]

My RCA 6T2. All it needs is a quick veneer replacement on the bottom left side as shown, then it will be ready for finish sanding, sealer, grain filler, and lacquer.

Tomorrow I hope to get the Philco 66B and RCA T7-5 completely stripped.

By the way, folks, when you are looking for gloves to wear when you are stripping cabinets, do not buy the black neoprene gloves sold by Home Depot. They are crap. First class, grade A monkey crap. Icon_thumbdown I opened up a pair and started to put the first one on my right hand - it pulled apart as I was pulling it onto my hand. Icon_eek I've had good luck with the green plastic gloves so far; they just don't last a long time.
