I am in need of two or three good pics of the top of this console that has the original veneer and finish. If anyone has any could you please post them.
My set evidently had veneer issues and some "bodywork" was done on the top. Filler was added and then the whole top was painted flat black. Well at this point in time more of the veneer has lifted and broken so I just stripped the whole top of all the veneer and will attempt to start over.

I believe it had walnut veneer, but someone may know differently. And the little strips of dark wood that are used as separators....I need to know what those are made of also.
Thanks in advance!

Gene
