I made an oak frame to enclose the unusual shape of the WeCo 322 before mounting it on my display panel.

Why not simply install an elevator to the display room?
;D

Great phone, and nicely-crafted display, Chuck!

What stain color did you utilize on your enclosure? Just curious, for future reference!

Thanks, and Best Regards! :)
Sláinte!

Mr. Bones:

I pre-darkened the wood with a yellow-brn oak alcohol stain (aniline dye), followed by dark walnut Watco oil.

I have mine displayed in a box too!  Only it's a cardboard box.  And it's not displayed.

Were those originally Elevator phones ?
