Finished cleaning the inside of the lid.
Also cleaned the felt some more.
Neither is perfect or looks new but is good enough to be presentable and won't attract too much attention to itself.
Now it needs to dry from the cleaning...
Also finished cleaning the major stains from the right hand side of the case drawers.
Still need to do a general cleaning of the drawer fronts and the knobs...
This drawer is too tight. and the front is somewhat dirty.
Will sand the sides of the drawer front and clean...
Lightly sanded the LH side of the drawer front using 180 grit sand paper.
Also lightly sanded the RH side of the drawer front using 180 grit sand paper. Will apply some Danish oil to the unprotected wood later...
Cleaned the top and the front of the drawer.
After the sanding and cleaning, the drawer now opens and closes easily and the appearance is more even with the rest of the drawers...
Before cleaning the LH side small drawers...
After cleaning the top three drawers. The unevenness of the finish will be made less noticeable when I apply Danish oil later...
The drawer front has dried and the unevenness of the finish is visible. This will be taken care of with the Danish oil...
Nearly done cleaning (still need to do the three RH small drawer fronts and the full width drawer fronts.
Then, I'll apply the Danish oil and it will pretty much be done & put to use storing tools and small objects...
Even without the Danish oil, the drawer fronts are generally presentable...
