Thanks,
Grill day 3...
More leveling and building. I ordered a full sheet of the veneer and it will be here next week.
I have cut out all the grill bits and I will prep it tomorrow.

I have followed Oldrestorer since he joined the Antique Radio Forum and you will not find an more enthusiastic member! He has saved some radios that I would never have thought could have been restored. He will tackle anything. I like to see anyone have fun at what they are doing. I have no doubt that this Edison will turn out great.

Hey Cliff,
I knew there could not be 2 Hearsedriver's out there...
Thanks for the support in this. The enjoyment is all I look for and when it goes right it is even more fun!
I want to do this unit justice so I ill give it my all +1. There is nothing like 4 hours creating pieces from the reverse side of the grill.
Jerry,
I am always happy to help if you need something.
It may take some time since I have about 80 radios, record players, and Tv's in que
Come on warm weather!

Hey Kirk- I actually see some floor there so you'd better stop slackin'!
Is that an early 1960s Magnavox suitcase changer?
