So I recently got into vinyl & my daughter has taken to it as well. Anyway she wanted her own turntable it just so happened that a co-worker of her mom had one she wanted to get rid of so for under 20.00 in parts (belt,new mat) I was able to get her a turntable that's decent & has auto-return which was important to me since she is going to be using my records.
So after much seaarching & debate with myself plus the need to get it done somewhat quickly I settled on the Overnight Sensations by Paul Carmody. More of a AIY than DIY I guess. So I received the parts on Friday & have been at it off & on all weekend. I'll add some pics but one thing that is of concern is how I'm finishing them I maybe screwed up in not planning for a removable front baffle. Her favorite color is blue soI decided I'd try & stain the cabinets blue since they're birch ply instead of MDF Front baffle I did with duplicolor truck bed liner. How can I glue the front on without wrecking the stain finish on the cabinet??? I'm concerned about squeeze out. I don't have much experience with stained finishes I was thinking painters tape along the sides with paper or something?
