So now that the cabinet has been stripped of all electronic bits and has been sanded down, I get to choose my paint colours and really start to have fun. I chose charcoal-ish black and heavy cream 2-in-1 paint and primer with a semi-gloss finish. But before I could start painting, I wanted to get a piece cut for the interior of the cabinet, where the radio and turntable will sit. This is that piece.

Made from beautiful laminate plywood...yay! |
My talents with a jigsaw are.... less than good, so the hole for the radio came out a little wonky, but it fit inside perfectly and hid the crappy cut really nicely.
Next I started fiddling around with the paint, trying to figure out how I wanted it to look.
Painting was starting to seem easy and was actually rather fun. I should have known that something terrible was on its way.
