The Brave Little....Radio!

I never leave a thrift store empty handed. Walk in with $5, walk out with an old box, a cool plate, or at least a bag of fabric scraps. 

Found this old wooden radio, KLH model 21 from 1965 (Not working) at a Goodwill for $5. Had a melted wax stained ring on top of it, scuffs and chips. The front fabric was stained and tattered, also missing main dial.


After a few hours of cleaning, sanding, cutting and gluing here is the finished project.


The final product came out better then I had hoped, after a thorough cleaning it started to work again. 

Cost:
Radio                 $5
Fabric                $3
Supplies             $2
Total              $10
