I'm sorry but that doesn't look right to me at all. In these days of 3D printing there has got to be a way to get these right. Most of the "vintage grill cloth" on eBay is nothing more than repurposed stock fabric. I had to buy a double order of this one, which really looks like it would be more at home on a chair than on the front of a radio: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...0970742909 It was the only fabric I could find with a diamond pattern, but since it is called grille cloth, it goes for over $100 a running yard.
