So just picked up a very reasonably priced EBD project from a fellow pinsider. But of course to be reasonably priced I run into a new problem I've not yet confronted before: rot. Clearly the bottom wood has to be replaced, and also, but not shown the cabinet rear. But what about the cabinet side there ? Can you Bondo that or best to just replace. If I were to look for a surrogate lower cab what other Bally machines would be a suitable donor ? My woodworking skills unfortunately extend as far as building a bird house in 7th grade so I may have met my restoration match here.

I bought a can of this, but have yet had the chance to try it out. Looks like an option...

Thanks, I'll check it out
