A friend with a woodshop is a friend indeed. I had a high school pal, his Dad was a machinist but also was a great woodworker, had a very nice shop. A handy guy to know.

I am lucky to know a couple of great furniture guys who take pity on me and help me out some times, actually they are intrigued by the whole antique radio thing and the cabinets are usually small jobs for them.

Violently ripped top, makes you wonder, the story behind the radio? You should get an award for bringing this baby back.

I am enjoying the thread.

Paul

You will be pleased with it when it is done.
