That really is a splendid effort - I don't think I've ever seen a cabinet so comprehensivly devoured by woodworm, and I think that many - if not most -woodies in that state would simply end up as donor sets and be broken up - being thought more of for the recoverable parts that to be kept intact, though without a cabinet. You've really done the set proud by providing it with a new 'home' and a new lease of life.
Excellent job!
