Grill cloth installed into 37-116
#1

Since no one seems to sell grill cloth with the proper width I had to use some of the original cloth in the clarifier area of the cabinet. I tried to align the chevron bars as close as possible and I think I came close.[Image: http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a508...604f0b.jpg]The cabinet will only require a final cleaning and then the finished chassis will be installed.

Thanks PhilcoJohn, I will report on the the sound and what song she sings. By the way I see your are from the Hudson Valley, I am originally from Poughkeepsie where are you. I bet the fall colors are great.

Looks Great!!!
I've got a 116X that I'm going to be doing the same thing on. Someone thought (or not) it would be a dandy the grab the cabinet there. And ripped it all up fortunately the clairifiers are a ok.
Keep up the good work&keep us posted.

I have that same cabinet but I was lucky my clarifier areas are pretty nice.[Image: http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a508...70c877.jpg]. I need to pull them out and do a lite cleaning with a paint brush and small shop vac.

Ronnin...Hello my neighbor! I live in Lagrange! Wow small world. The colors are beautiful right now, but half the leaves have fallen. I dont want to think what happens next.

I hate too tell you but you know what comes next, the Hudson valley is notorious for winters that make you want to Cus.
