Well it's done and what an experience . I learned so much about electronic restoration and test procedures from this build. Here are some of the final pictures of the finished 37-116.[Image: http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a508...df2394.jpg] as you can see I'm still rolling it around on a furniture cart trying to find the best location for it, don't worry IT won't be the kitchen.[Image: http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a508...4979ae.jpg] the cabinet will remain untouched for now it really looks good.[Image: http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a508...4b270b.jpg] thanks to everyone for your suggestions and encouragement along the way. Now it's on to the 116X
