I found a Philco 41-221C, it looks complete, but the grill is missing. Is there some place that remakes them? Thought about trying to make a wood grill for it what do you all think?

Kirk (OldRestorer) had several of these grills made. He did have an ad in the For Sale or Trade section of the Phorum (bottom of the page on the Phorum home page), but the ad is no longer there so he may have sold them all?

Other later models used plastic. If you can find a junker you can steal the grill.
