Two of my latest project Tube teter and tube caddy

[Patnukem]

I recently purchases a tube tester (Model Jackson 648A) it was fairly nice except the case so I decided to refinish it.




after sanding, staining, clear coating, replacing the bottom (had a hole in it), polished the metal, and reused the rivets






around this time I realized I wanted a tube caddy got this one for very cheap and had some very nice parts inside.



After sanding and staining it, I used a light colored fabric iron on transfer to reproduce the original logos then polyurethane, I ended up using screws that I had to countersink
(the rivets removed were not that great and could not be reused also it would be very hard to pinch them in at the bottom of this box)
