Peerless Radio Find
#12

This is related to a post in the "Other Radios (Non Philco)" section.

Here's the radio as i  found it.

Then with the finish removed and with the new rear arch brace. It's made from plywood that I planed down to match thickness of other side. I used a real planer.

Next the new horizontal bar made from an eighth inch dowel painted with primer numerous times to increase the diameter. You can see the before and after... not much difference.

Last is the speaker cloth. This is the best match I could find "Whiskey Rayon".  I might try to tint it with some perfect brown toner. I do some samples first.

I will post some pics of the finished radio soon.
