Making a start on "the low hanging fruit", Login to view image to quote a project manager I once worked with. A friend of mine spent some time cleaning up the curser.  Interestingly this piece isn't anodised like the face plate, which is probably why it oxidised so badly, I'm told that one can determine if something has been anodised by the use of a multimeter set to ohms......if something is anodised it wont conduct?....I will test this. New felt pads will be included too.

this is the internals.....was sold as "restored by seller"..............

made a start on the cabinet top, was in a bit of a mess so re shaped the smashed corners ready for veneering..... Login to view image

This is a slow and painstaking exercise requiring a lot of sanding and swearing.......cant hurry the glue drying process either.... Login to view image

Oh.....and this has arrived from Frede......such excellent work, was a little miffed at having to pay import duty on it now that we are free from the EU ;¬) Login to view image

Cabinet top veneer finished, shame to stain it actually....I quite like the iroko wood grain, but will have to match the Beolab or it will look odd. Login to view image
