Early 16B tombstone
#10

Hi Nathan,
Great refinish on both sets! I never noticed the similarities between the 16B tombstone and the butterfly cabinets. I remember thinking that the butterfly was just an odd style.
As for the paint I'll probably mix up a little something. I have some water based acrylics here just didn't know what color I needed to shoot for. Makes sense to to apply it between the toner and final gloss coats. For some reason it doesn't mind the lacquer base paint over it. No blistering or pealing. Used in on the Philcote on my 37-602 and worked out great for touching up the worn and chipped areas.

Tnx for the input!

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Terry
