Starting new project , I will post new pictures as progress continues , I thought some of you would like to see how some basic refinish procedures, ask questions I ill try to answer them as time allows me to do so, I thought it would be cool for you guys to  see start to finish in a couple weeks time, this is my radio and I have to get customer stuff done as I do this monster of a cabinet. Sure will look nice when finished, it a fine piece of furniture.
