Thanks Paul, but I don't try to kid myself - I'm no cabinet "artist" like Steve Davis, or Russ (Phlogiston), or Fred Taylor, or John Hagman "Hagstar", or many others whose names do not immediately come to mind right now. I just do the best that I can. The end results usually aren't 100% perfect on the cabinets that I refinish, but they generally suit me. I usually do better work with the electronics.
But yes, I do strive to do my best when it comes to this so it really bothers me when I mess up.
I will try my best to fix the flaws in both the 66B and this 6T2. But not immediately. I'm going to take a few days' break from these two cabinets. If I want to work on a cabinet, I still have lots of work to do to my RCA T7-5 cabinet, the worst part being the replacement of a sheet of veneer and strips of veneer on that particular cabinet. It, too, shall wait a day or two, however.
