12" Hoffman w/doors I got cheap on eBay

Last month, I got this Hoffman 12" table model with doors on eBay Buy-It-Now for $35... It was missing the knobs and CRT, but cabinet not too bad. It was local, so I went and got it the following weekend. I stuck it in a corner behind the sofa for now.

Anyway, the seller said it somewhat worked, but naturally I didn't (and won't) try to power it up until I have recapped it. I harvested a good 12LP4 from a junker, and I had plenty of original knobs in my knob collection! So take a look at the link from the eBay ad, and this photo below is how it came out:
