The wooden part looks very similar to the exterior shell of my 1980's Akai GX44R cassette tape deck. Nice job OP! someone's youtube of that tape deck's wood exterior. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmGk\_vYVy9U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmGk_vYVy9U)

Thank you. Checked out the video that's very cool, it does look like it.

I love it! The wood is beautiful and I love how the front edge is angled (sorry, don't know the correct terminology).

Thank you! I believe the terminology is, "reversed bevel edge".

Could also say it is chamfered

Nice. What finish used?

Thank you! This is a mixture I took from Eric Curtis (Encurtis) on YouTube. Equal parts polyurethane, danish oil, and turpentine. Applied three coats of that, and then two coat of a top coat, which is basically the same as the first mixture but replacing the polyurethane with beeswax and applied with a gray scotch-brite pad. Feels amazing to the touch.
