OK, lots to answer here- Thanks Don, yes, I don't think putting the bezels back looking like bottle caps would be appropriate. Regarding removing, there are 11 screws in the rear to be removed, then some strange wood rings covering up the soldering points; those were removed and the solder was removed with a sharp scraper- the bezels then fell out when the backing plate was removed.
Regarding my attire, when I was young I went to parties, and everywhere else dressed like a slob, or as people used to say; a filthy violent hippie- (that was a long time ago) Jerry Garcia died and I grew up a little. Now I work on cars in my business casual garb but I wear my little white glovies and I stay clean. Also, the office crew does not know that I'm not conducting business in the warehouse when I disappear for a couple hours and come back to my office clean. Please also note that this gives me time to read the WSJ which is conveniently located on the floor at a perfect reading distance
And no post is complete without a question; where would I get a selection of veneer pieces without ordering on line- or is there a good on-line store to get this stuff? Dave, thanks for your note- please feel free to chime in- I'm no woodworker.
As always thanks so much
