Thanks I will do that, how can I move topic this over to the restoration section? I am new to the forums :dizzy:
xtommyboy22x:
It was good purchase I think...... for $50. There is no real damage to the cabinet. One monitor works but the other does not. So probably after painting, patching, sanding, t-molding, new plexiglass, decals, etc. I will probably spend the same amount as if I bought it new. It is my first restoration, I am enjoying every second of it :)

I had my brothers come over to help me lift the cabinet out of the basement. I laid the cabinet onto some cardboard boxes to keep it off of the grass.
As you can see the cabinet is in some rough shape, but I am ready for the challenge :D
I used a 5 inch sander with some 60 grit sandpaper to remove the old paint.
After two and a half hours of taking my time ........ waalaaa!!! one side finished. I will do the other side tommorrow weather permitting :D
My brother stopped over to help me lift the cabinet back into the basement. One side finished :) I used a tack cloth to remove any excess dust and debris from the freshly sanded side Tommorrow I would like to add the wood hardener to some of the corners to prepare for wood bondo.
