Disassembly!

Nothing really put up much of a fight, thankfully.





Basically only the skin remains:



Going to the trash heap eventually:



Next up: stripping veneer and cutting 1/2" plywood into replacements for speaker opening, electronics shelf, and back panel. There are parts of the veneer that require just a gentle touch to come off the cabinet, but then there are parts that are guaranteed to give me fits.
Cool project, but please don't just throw that stuff out.
Put it up on craigslist in the free section at least. Some one out there can use the parts instead of it just rotting in a landfill somewhere.
