Just started stripping the cabinet for my AC Dayton radio. The cabinet is in pretty good shape except the top. Looks like the lid was made from gluing several slats together then veneering over them. The slats have started coming apart at the glue joints. Is there way I should go about filling the gaps between the slats? I doubt I would be able to clamp them back tight again as the lid has warped a bit over the years.

Here is a couple pics.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
