I am in the middle of making a whole new cabinet for a similar machine ( Take 5). But have so many other things to deal with at the moment it is just sitting there waiting for more love. Stained it rather than put formica back on. Looks good so far
Actually my friend is a kitchen maker & he knocked up the cab out of ply. The original cabinet was not in very good cond as it was made of particle board. Will be adding lockable wheels so it can be moved around more easily for cleaning etc. as I intend to put it in the loungeroom.
Good luck with your project
