I have two consoles that I used Grain filler and toners only with good results.

By structural wood I take it you mean the base and the ridge around the top? If I use the classic toner, I would see the grain through it, so what you say makes sense. It would make those areas nice if I added some color first.

The grille bars really have no grain showing, so here I was thinking a light touch of VanDyke brown tone finish toner. Probably the same color for the previously mentioned areas.

BTW I went to your website today and enjoyed it very much. Quite a collection and all in nice condition.
