We have a four level split of pretty basic design. The kitchen cabinets are red oak & have only 4 drawers. The wife is short hence spice racks mounted on the inside of an upper cabinet door was out. The contractor’s electrician managed to put outlets in every counter corner so a garage with an tambour door would be a problem. I built this spice cabinet because we did not care for open spice racks & it nests in under the upper cabinets leaving 15” of counter space open in front of it & equipped with a tambour door for ready access to the spices. I built it of red oak to match the cupboards.
It holds 27 spice jars with a small drawer at the bottom for bulk spices. It was an interesting project in that this was the first tambour door that I had made.

Kew: Yup…replaced all of the receptacle/switch plates in the house. The place also came with those crappy brass globe door handles ….so turned wooden replacements together with their mounting plates. Closet door handles as well. You wouldn’t believe the number of plastic plates & brass door knobs there are in the average 3 bedroom house.LOL
