I'm curious-are you still using shellac for grain filler? The reason I ask is that I have been as well, although I switched from using many sprayings from a can to using the brush-on kind. It is much cheaper and far faster using that to fill in the grain, and you can be pretty messy at it as you'll just be sanding it all back anyway.

I'm in the rush to do a few cabinets this weekend as well-I have a Philco 60, filled the grain today and will begin lacquering tomorrow. After that, I have a teeny Emerson mantle radio that needs done. We've been getting lots of rain on the East Coast, so that has slowed me down considerably! Hopefully you won't get frozen out of finishing these cabinets. Keep up the good work!
