I graft in a new small piece of wood. You are going to have to remove the grill cloth and be careful not to damage what appears to be photo finish while carefully sanding the new wood into shape. The radio will, of course, have to be refinished if you want it to disappear.

Kind of what I was thinking.

So do I form a new piece to fit the chip or cut out a section and go in w/ a new rectangular piece?

I'll do my best to not harm the photo finish as this cabinet needs a full refinishing.
