Hey everyone,
Here are a couple of pics of my mostly finished 40-150! I still have to figure out how to make preset tabs. This set plays nicely, but the cabinet fought me. I thought that being a simple design, it would be an easy one to restore, but nothing went the way I wanted it to! I had it almost finished and decided that it was too dark so I stripped off all the new laquer and started over. I'm still not 100% satisfied but I don't want to do it over again!!!
