Hey now, these are the domestic tastes of *most of history* - if you had a pretty enough woodgrain to show off, you showed it off. Paint is supposed to hide ugly cheap stuff.

Bad craftsmanship with good wood still suggests "show off the good wood" unless the bad craftsmanship has been bad enough to compromise the good wood (i.e. Lots of filter, ugly nail holes, etc.)

These components came from a lumberyard; they aren’t being removed. Not everything old is sacred.
