Hello,
That is a VERY hard question for us to answer. There are so many tools and pieces of equipment you **need/could use** to make restorations run faster and smoother.
When I first started I bought veneer, wood glue, a few scrapers, Spray toner in the can, Clear lacquer in the can, Grain filler, #0000 steel wool, lacquer thinner, stripper, mineral spirits, rags, and lots of sand paper.
As you go along with restorations you will learn more about what to buy, where to buy, colors, techniques, and so on. Start a new thread for the radio cabinet you want to restore and from that point we can better advise you. So many of these guys are cabinet guru's. I am fairly new too. I have only been restoring cabinet for about 7 years and am always learning. My finished products aren't always perfect but one day when I am a real good cabinet restorer I will re-do all my cabinets to perfection.
Welcome and we cant wait to see your projects,
Kirk
