38-2670 cabinet problem
#1

Hi Folks,
Have a problem with the veneer on the front corners on the radius's.
They have a vertical split on both corners that looks like it was caused by the wood underneath the veneer splitting. I think I could inject some glue or epoxy into the crack, and top it off with a colored wood filler, if I could open it up enough to get something in there.
I would then refinish both of those corner panels and leave the rest alone.
I am thinking if they were stained a darker maybe solid color and then sprayed with laquer it would be presentable?
Maybe a dark toner would be better?
Really don't want to try and replace the veneer on those 2 corner panels with that tight of a corner radius.
Maybe Kirk would know a good way to fix this.
It's a nice playing radio so I would like to finish it and find a sturdy shelf to display it on. Weighs a ton.
