I know it was a Victrola at one time. Can you tell me which one this used to be?

Ok, you do know for a small fee you can see someone about your anger management issues.

I presume there is a back story so fess up before the lynch mob gathers momentum.

You know.....I had problems like this back in the day with Ikea furniture. In fact, they ended up much the same way "after" I finished assembling them. Nothing beats a five pound hammer.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:.

Yes, it "was" a Canadian Berliner "L" door XVI circa 1909. Sad to say the cabinet was just too far gone to be saved.... :cry:.

At one time I had been giving my worthless Victrola frames to my landlord to chop up for firewood. He actually told me not to bother anymore because it was too much work to get them apart!

Drop me a line if you plan on heading down I-5 near Seattle. I want to make sure I'm no where near the interstate when you drive by... Safe to say that that cabinet is DONE! :shock: :o
