New cabinet job on NBTV Monitor
Just in time for the NBTV Convention (plug) on April 19th I've re-hashed the cabinet on my home-made 'Grosvenor' NBTV colour set. See it HERE.

I'm very impressed with the cabinet Steve, the veneering looks very good indeed.

Re: New cabinet job on NBTV Monitor
I was unable to do a 'book match' with the front veneers though, so I just picked the most appropriate looking patch. I needed a lot of veneer for this large cabinet (2ft 3ins wide) and used up a couple of rolls of American Black Walnut, obtained from Vale Veneers.
About ten flatted coats of cellulose were then applied, including a walnut toner - essential for getting an attractive colour in this instance. Steve
