Early 16B tombstone
#15

So have started back up on the 1st 16B (have 2 now). BIG shout out to TruePhilco  as he was kind enough to repair the broken top panel by cutting off the split end and fashioning a piece with the proper contours to match the original. I had sent it over to Steve Davis but he had a medical emergency and wasn't sure what his outcome was going to be. I've had the  repaired panel for a few months waiting for a little better weather.

I had the cabinet setting on a box which it took a tumble from. This removed the right side panel which was probably a good thing. Came off nice clean w/o breaking the tongue and groove joints. The last couple of days I've been clamping and gluing the side to the front and base board. Today I'm fitting the top panels and making some small adjustment so it all fits well. Nothing like having a nice tight cabinet especially which one w/a heavy chassis.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got it!
