Busnesses or people who restore cabinets
#1

Well,

I am old enough to recognize my shortcomings.
I was never good with woodworking.
And (maybe because I had not tried that, due to whatever...lack of proper space is one of the lame excuses I could think of) I never got myself to derive any excitement from the cabinet restoration.

However I have three radios (two of which, both Philcos, I restored electrically, so they work) that will need some cabinet work done on them.

I am in Jackson NJ, so it is somewhat middle Jersey, slightly favoring South.

Does anyone know any good reputable business that is capable of radio cabinetry work (considering veneers matching, etc) around here?

I tried calling few businesses, but the mostly strip the whole thing and fully re-finish, and I have decent original finish on mine, and I'd like to keep it.

Mike.
