This restoration was my greatest challenge to date.

Completely broken leg, scratches, dents, chipped veneer, this cabinet had it all. It also had a ton of modifications previously made to it in its past lives that I aimed to undo. My goal was to bring this piece back to its original function as a record cabinet.

I purchased a record player from Victrola, the same maker as this phonograph cabinet. It may not be as cool as the original crank-operated phonograph, but this is more practical for modern standards; it even has Bluetooth! I designed the whole inside based around the dimensions of the record player that I got, and although the process may look smooth and quick in the video, the multiple iterations of design had me digging through the deepest depths of my brain.

If you enjoyed this makeover, please like and subscribe to see more. And if you have any questions, I would be happy to answer your comments.

Thank you for watching :)
