It's getting DDDDAAAAARRRRRKKKKKKEEEEEERRRRRRR!
BUT I'm not sure that I'm crazy about it... There are many imperfections in the wood some from the original manufacture and others from 86yrs of being uses and abuse. I thinking a sanding and a coat (or two) of grain filler are in order(bah humbug!!) for the front and sides. The top is passable.
I have been using Mohawk extra dark walnut toner but it very red where the original is more yellow/brown. Going to give the van dyke brown a try on paper it seems to be a little more yellow.
Still a vast improvement over what I started with

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
