Hey Curt,

Did you ever finish the restoration? Pictures?

Brad,
Actually, I got "sidetracked" last year when I fell off the second story of my house... needless to say, I wasn't really up to restoration projects for awhile. I just recently got the door shelves and wire supports from a friend who had an extra set, so now I am going to go back to it. I have obtained another record cabinet that needs restoring as well, so I am set for awhile.

I worked on some smaller projects last fall and completed (built from scratch) an upright cabinet for some Regina 11" works that were orphaned without a cabinet. I have also restored a VV-50 and an Outing portable. Just finished a small portable that was unusual, a Columbia BKT and a Peter Pan with alligator skin. As soon as I finish assembling my Columbia BFT, I think I will start on the cabinet...

When it's finished, I'll post some pics. Right now it is totally disassembled and needs regluing...
