The tuner case I've been working on is all done and ready to go home. It wasn't a particularly difficult restore--all I had to do was replace some missing veneer, sand it down, and oil it up. I just ordered some glue and other supplies (including super--fine sandpaper) from Stu-Mac, which specializes in all things guitar. My next project will involve gluing down some binding on my Martin D-18. A part of my previous fix is starting to come up again. Sigh Wish me luck!

@TheHorse That can make it hard to match. Hope you are close enough.

I hopethe customer is happy. He's trying to match it with another case. But all I have is pictures of that case.

@wolfgirl569 Me too. I left it "medium dark." If he wants it darker, he/we can add another coat of Watco Medium Danish Oil.
