hi everyone,
here is an update on my radio project, now that fall outdoor activities have ended i can resume working on my inside stuff.

i painted the housing Rust-Oleum Brown (210880 Hammered Metal Finish), i was gonna use the copper hammered finish but it seemed a bit too bright
this brown looks very satisfactory for me.
photos attached showing the masked areas and how it turned out, paint really does hid the many imperfections smile

i may wait to glue on the reproduction decals until i'm ready for final assembly
that way I don't damage them when i invariably have to take something apart many times to make assembly corrections.
