Ron's RCA T7-5 Cabinet Rescue
#28

Thanks Mike and Bob.

I've glued all of the spots which I had identified as needing to be glued down. Those also include the right front corner of the top veneer, and the lower front and back corners of the right side veneer. In those areas, I glued them the way I used to - by getting as much Titebond glue into the corners as possible, then ironing them down with an old iron.

Since I took the photo above this afternoon, I have removed the clamps only to find another spot needing to be glued which is the bottom front trim on the right side. That has now been glued and is clamped.

On the first decent outdoor afternoon we have this week, I hope to finish preparing this cabinet by cleaning a few remaining trouble spots in front with acetone. I will also cut those grooves in the bottom right side veneer, and apply a little wood putty in a couple spots that need it. And then next weekend (which is supposed to be sunny and cooler)...I hope to get this cabinet sealed and then apply the grain filler. I might just get this one refinished this year after all. We shall see.
