Congrats on an excellent project,  Niel!   I was thinking of replying to 
Dave about my notion that the Gross style of construction ought to be 
pretty easy to copy, and here you've proven the point very nicely.    
Not only does it give the 30s vintage look, but it should be fairly easy 
to do using angle stock, and could be adjusted to accommodate available 
chassis sizes.    Probably not a great choice for those with small 
children, curious pets, or who have trouble staying clear of HV and RF!

The dial escutcheons and Bliley crystal really add the finishing 
touch.    Now, where do we sign up for your black wrinkle painting 
workshops?
