I took a small drill bit to make a hole in the metal flange of the drive cage and a small needle bit to open a hole in the cherry wood. I drove in brass nails to hold the drive cage in place.
After routing my trim on the router table using the smallest cove bit (in keeping with the rest of the wood trim) I began to trim out the drive cage.
From the picture you can see a new trim piece on the side of the case. I later sanded that smooth and it looks great. Its to support the hinges on the raised panel door.
Here you can see a rabbet cut in the side of the case. That is to hold smoked plexiglas panels on both sides.
You can also see more trim on the side of the drive cage.
Things are beginning to look up on this log.
Proper clearance on the buttons so everything is good
Until the batteries went dead on the camera. As soon as they charge I will have more pictures.... LOL
Well here is the picture of the front of the unit with the trim in place.
And here is a picture of the new brace behind the hinges (looked really bad in the earlier pic LOL)
This is such a sweet looking mod. I can't wait to see it all finished.
Thank you I will do my best..Quote:

Things are really looking good. Dark Stain will make this look better.
