One mans trash. is another mans treasure! I just happen to find some old cabinets and some ruff plywood out on a job today. it aint purdy, but it does work. The way i see it, it's just more money for livestock! I'm going to put some luaun on it. strip the pain off the doors and stain it. Total cost = $15.00!!!!!!!!!! http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/m...9/S5030220.jpg |

the woods in great shape. some of it is a little sun faded. I scrapped a little paint off the door, it's a really nice birch underneath it. I still have to put panels on the stand. I got some 1/4 round molding, and some real nice crown molding to go on it too. It's took 4 hours to do that much. I'm just excited thats all, can't help it!!! | |
