The electronics were done this winter, including all of the Bakelite blocks (thanks to many tips from Phorum members). I've been waiting for some nice weather to finish the cabinet.
I had to replace the veneer on both sides and the top. I finished it with Mohawk toners. Medium Brown Walnut and Van Dyke Brown for the trim. The grill cloth is a repro that is somewhat close to original.
