Is there someone here who have a beolit 1000 in palisander and a good camera,who can send me a pair of sharp pictures of the panels.
i have a pair of panels without veneer on and i will try to get it printed on.

I can try - can you describe a little what kind of pictures you need?

Hi Mika.
If you can take 3 pictures,one quite close and 2 more a little further from,it will be good i think.
I send you an pm with a email you can send the pictures to .
I'll try to do it tomorrow when there's some natural light, or maybe take the radio to work where I have studio lights.
I have to warn that my Beolit is far from perfect, though...

I have some good photo editing software, if needed just mail me the pics Henrik
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
It have to be palisander because the guy who is printing for me have already made a teak printing for me and it is saved in his computer so it is no problem to made another teak printing,actually it should have been oak,but ended up as teak

Hi Henrik,
very interesting try. I can also make few pictures of my Beolit 1000 with palisander / rosewood covers if you want. Please let me know if you already got them from Mika...
Are you going to print this directly to the panels or to the foil which you will stick on the cover?

Hi the master.
You are welcome to send me a pair of pictures of your palisander panels.
The print is directly on the panels, and it looks like real vener, Martin have seen the radio and he did not notice anything before i told him it was printed.
@theomaster please do, mine is actually teak so it won't be too useful for Henrik.
This seems to be a great way to restore the panels. Applying new real veneer wouldn't be that difficult, except for the thousands of holes!
(I once calculated the exact number Can't remember it any more, but approximating from the pictures, it's a couple of thousand per panel...)
I sent you an e-mail with few pictures of the covers of my Beolit 1000, please check your inbox.
I made the pictures yesterday evening and today early, before I went to work. Therefore the lightning of the pictures could maybe not be optimal for your purpose. Please write me back it they are not good enough and I will try again.
Here is the guy who will obviously get his clone
Hi Theomaster.
Many thanks for the pictures,i am sure they are good enough,but i am sending some of them to my friend Søren Mexico to see what he could do to them.
Your beolit looks to bee very nice.
I keep you all opdated,but there could go a long time before they are printed,the first ones took 3-4 months from wee started to talk about it to they were printed,he is very busy.
