This is the cabinet Mike got on Craigslist.

I have begun trying to repair the repair someone tried. Ugh I hate when they think glue without clamping is ok...

She will need new wood on the top side lip and then a new dial cover. I think Mike may have bought one though...
Did you Mike?

Here is the start. I have absolutely no time so it will be a long time between posts for the restoration.
