Next case - Odd Philco 42-720 Tropic
#77

Thanks, Ron. Glad you like it. I'd hoped you didn't mind my removing the painter's tape you applied, but I wanted to make sure the flocking stayed where it should've when it was taken off. Happily, it did! Icon_thumbup

I did the flocking in the basement workshop. It was somewhere between 60 - 65 degrees down there, so yes, there was some heat. Not sure how much of a factor that was or wasn't.

I will let it set to dry a few more days and hopefully be able to send it back to you Friday or Saturday.
