jorjen Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Some of you may have seen my thread in the "lounge" regarding the loss of our home to a fire back on 07/05/2017. Included in the loss was a pair of 1970 Klipschorns that I was in the process of restoring to their former glory AND enclosing the backs. I never shared any of the restoration photos so I thought I would do so now. I do not have many photos as I had not gotten that far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorjen Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 I normally start by restoring the labels to like new as the very first step and put them on last as the finishing touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jorjen Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 I like to install threaded inserts for use with black machine screws when doing the woofer door on Khorns. Just something I prefer I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jorjen Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 And that as they say is that! These were getting the full Enchilada. Grilles, Figured Koa veneer, anniversary style toe kicks and emblems. Damn shame, I will say that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
