Making a 1937 Airline radio chassis on YouTube
#14

Great series Buzz  Icon_thumbup 

Quite an ambitious project to build a chassis from scratch and you did a fine job!  My only suggestion if you deal with decals again in the future is to buy some Micro Set and Micro Sol.  Micro Set prolongs the working time if you have issues getting the decal in the correct position and promotes better adhesion.  Micro Sol softens the decal after application and helps it blend in with the surface, especially helpful for uneven or rough surfaces (wood grain?).

Thanks for taking the time to make and share your videos!
