    new works bring on the case.

    I have found 2 marvels on ebay :thumb:, voltmeter and ampermeter made in USA in the 50's

    [​IMG]

    I stuck ornamental sheets on the back of the front panel

    [​IMG]

    Last panel OK, so I could start the cut of plastic angle

    And after the first touch of paint
