"Barter Bucks" project for the Dental Office.

Too bad such a nice cabinet has to get bartered for dental services. LOL. Great work!

Welcome to the LumberJocks. I think it’s a great way to go. Good work! I’ve been a horse trader all my life and never pass up a chance to trade. Value for value and Uncle Sugar hates it. I assume the MT means Montana. You will enjoy your time spent here.

I was going to say “sweet deal” but that is bad for your teeth… so AWESOME job! Great trade.

And their response??

Nice work and great deal i fyou can get enough tooth work out of them :)

I agree, the more we can by pass greedy uncle scam’s tax frauds the better we, as a free people, will be. I am not saying we should never pay tax but the greed that has become prevalent with the politicians (on both sides of the seemingly one party system <grin>) in the US is way over the top. ok ok back to the wood, this is not a political forum <smile>

Really nice looking project. I just love practical woodworking solutions.

I bet they were very pleased with what you built for them. With solid hickory construction, I hope you got a couple of gold crowns or something of comparable value for your labor.

The barter system is a nice way to go, as has been stated by others here. The government hates us utilizing such practical arrangements, but the more oppressive the tax system becomes, the more things like barter become attractive.

How did you like that $80 HVLP system? I just bought an HVLP conversion gun for my conventional compressor that cost me $80.

Did you use bottom mounted Euro drawer glides?

The biscuit alignment with pocket hole screws will be plenty strong enough.

Thanks for sharing your construction details with us – very nice project!

Very nice looking chest. I hope you get many years of dental work for that cabinet.

The $80 HVLP turbine/gun was a great addition to my shop. I’m sure it will eventually get replaced with a setup that allows more adjustability, but for the cost and my current projects I’m more than pleased with this addition. The drawers do ride on bottom mounted Euro slides.

Are you sure they don’t owe you some money? LOL That’s a very well made cabinet and I’m glad to hear your dentist was willing to barter with you.

A cabinet like that from a Dental supplier would be in the range of $400.00 to $600.00.
I hope you made a fair exchange.

Very nice, they wouldn’t have gotten that nice of cabinet from the supplier, that should be good for a crown or two.

We appreciate the way you made the grain match on the drawers, even if the dentist didn’t notice it.
