Yes Daniel-son, speakers most definitely Decorators- the defining bit of cabinetry is that the front board is not an inset baffle board, but integral part of the cabinet box itself- running full height top to bottom. Excellent sleuthing work and good job on stripping them down. You've got a great start on your restoration project.

Now go read every thread posted by Greg928S about how to tool up veneer properly.. (jk, kinda) Practice on scrap block is a good idea.

One thing about the decorators. The top of the back board is flush with the top. If you veneer the top, you will be covering the 3/4" top of the back. If you remove the back 3/4" of top veneer breaks away.

Did I say that right??????? Anyway, I bet someone has a cure for that..........

I know what you are talking about. The old veneer was that way. I've already considered that. I think i will just veneer the top of the back piece seperately from the top piece.

Yes. I think that would be one way to do it. I had considered covering the top and making a cut with a strait edge and X-Acto knife. And if you have fresh networks and good drivers, you could make cut the only when and if you needed to get inside the box.
