After some sanding, I applied new mahogany veneer to the top, and patched the side with veneer removed from the top.

I gave the cabinet a rest and started back on the chassis. I used CLR to remove as much crud and rust as possible. It's not pristine, but a lot better than it was.

The crt had a lot of the coating flaking off. After giving it a good scrubbing, I recoated it with Slip Plate. I was happy with the way it turned out.

Got some more caps and replaced the rest in the power supply and HV section. After checking and replacing a half dozen tubes, I decided to see where I was as far as working condition. I brought it up on a variac and was presented with a half a picture. Not too bad for a first try.

Some more caps and a couple of resistors later, I had a nice double picture. Getting closer, but still a ways to go. The crt looks pretty good.

Some more caps and I had a nice picture of Grandpa Amos and Pepino. I decided to replace all of the paper and wax caps as well as some bumblebees since there wasn't that many originals left, maybe 8 or 10.
To be continued.
