My latest - RCA T7-5
#14

Blogging along. I'm calling the cabinet done. I put on three good coats of semi-gloss lacquer and rubbed it out. Still need to cut out a backing piece for the grille because it is very weak. I busted a place in the fretwork while I was rubbing out the lacquer and had to reglue. Ugh, another 'apology' flaw.
Got the chassis working FB. These are easy radios to work on and it fired up first time after recapping. Performs great and aligned great. I've been listening to the chassis on the bench for several days and I'm tickled with it.

Almost there!
