Philco 16B restoration
#23

Finished.

I glued the grill cloth yesterday.  This was somewhat more complicated than the others I've done. The frame is cardboard, but not rectangular, so stretching was a bit more involved. I used push pins and a smooth surface cardboard box with saran wrap on top (to prevent the glue, if coming through, to glue to the box's surface; I use 77 spray glue), stretching as I went, sticking the push pins to hold the cloth to the cardboard. Other than that, it went fine.

These are the results.

   
   

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
