Hi All,
Sorry that I don't seem to be able to find the photos that were put up here previously.. My computer skills are somewhat lacking. I tried to search for Brunswick Photos but only found one thread somehow.. A friend has a after market painted Brunswick which at one time long ago I happened to also own.. I promised him I would make a grill of the proper design to go in it. Someone or several of you posted some photos of your machines in wood finish that showed the design. As I recall it was rather simple with a few upright an cross pieces to the design.. I would be grateful if someone could post a couple close ups of the grill design for this instrument.
thanks
Larry

Give us the dimensions of the grille. I believe that I have one salvaged from the plain machine upon which this custom job was based.
Does he have the radio panel for the drawer?

Re: Need photo of Brunswick grill for this machine.
Its opening is 12 ⅛ by 16 3/16. I would appreciate a photo of the grill design.. Since its been painted and I have purchased some material that will work for the grill I really need the design.. I had it but I spent an hour looking though all my photos and couldn't come up with it.. The goggle site had the photo in its page of brunswick photos, but now that machine is no longer shown.

Here's a photo of a machine coming up for auction that looks like your cabinet. Too bad the legs are gone!

That is interesting.. The design is different than the one that was on the machine photos I previously saw? It had only the oval part of the design cut out and from what I recall was a very simple look.. This is a though though I suppose? I would still be interested should someone have farther styles for this design.

Re: Need photo of Brunswick grill for this machine.
Unless I am seeing it wrong I just realized that this grill is not centered? The left side appears to be different than the right? I don't see that same opening of material on the right that the left shows? That seems odd since the horn is generally centered in the openings.. I will have to check my tracing of the horn position I made to see if its a variable like the one shown or if its centered.. I am pretty sure its centered.

Correct, It doesn't look centered.

I agree. I think this is because the drawer below is narrower than the horn opening. They made the vertical part of the cross line up with the drawer pull. Seems they simply left out the narrow decorative cutout on the right side next to the door hinges.

Re: Need photo of Brunswick grill for this machine.
Your correct they are lining the vertical center pattern on the drawer pull. I didn't catch that at first. I am reasonably sure the previous design I saw centered in the middle but have a wider set of vertical lines to the pattern.. Interesting the variations in the same cabinet.
I didn't answer the radio board question because I really don't recall exactly how it was but I think there was a board with some holes drilled in it inside the drawer area but I can't swear to it.

Re: Need photo of Brunswick grill for this machine.
I keep forgetting to ask if anyone knows how to bring up the thread on this group where the machine in question was shown when I first mentioned that this painted cabinet.
