Great upcycle Jonathan. I have one of these 1930's radios as well in storage. Will be remodeling mine, but wish to have the tubes replaced with a modern stereo with added plug-in for the iphone but keep the retro look intact. My family was always into music and dance as I was growing up, so to keep that part of my Dad's radio memories intact is my goal. I used to stand in front of it and sing as mine has a plug for a 45 record player that sat on top. Not sure when I will be doing this refurb, but you gave me inspiration, thank you.
Wonderful transformation and keeping the family history alive.

I'm an Electronics Technician retired after 30 years in the field. One of my customers had 2 nine inch round RCA TV'S. He wanted me to combine the two to make a working TV. That's an era when capacitors were wrapped in wax paper. I've visited homes where the old console TV's were converted into liquor cabinets hidden behind the speakers. Prohibition era or just not wanting your guests to know that you had alcohol. That was an age of craftsmanship when the electronics matched your furniture. Great project.
