Hi Everyone, I thought I would show anyone that might be interested how my Radio is coming along. I have been prepping the cabinet to apply the toner and it looks like it ispretty close to being able to spray it. Here are a few pics...

On the last photo there are some cracks and a veneer repair towards the top left of the light section. Does anyone have a suggestion of what I might fill those in with to hide a bit better, the color, etc.? Anyway , that is the only problem with the cabinet. I will be smoothing the wood a bit more then spray the toner/laquer soon. Also, anyone have any suggestions for a good spryer to use with my compresor and the Deft laquer? Thanks for all answers. Warren
