Good job! It looks nice. Wood work can be as fun as the electric part... ok I lied, lol

Ive only done 4, 1 TV and 3 radios and my 4rd one was easier and looks better so practice makes perfect. Ive kinda settled on the acetone/lacquer thinner mix for stripping which is a quick way of doing it and can stain right after the strip I dont get carried away with filling and making it look perfect but I like putting spray lacquer on thick for protection. Scratches dont seem to look bad when stripped with the magic mix.

My last tombstone was stained 2 hrs after i started and that included getting stuff ready, stripping, a light sanding, staining. Guess im saying it doesnt have to be hard but you can make it hard. I have built some furniture in the past so have an edge over a novice, but I never could match filler well.
