This is a beautiful cabinet! The stained wood looks very uniform. This piece has a very warm tone to it. Nice work!

High quality cabinet work. You have every reason to be proud of them. You won’t find the likes of them at your local Home Despot.

Good Panama, but it is harder to get out to the shop during the week.

Thanks Todd. That means very a lot coming from someone with our skills.
Hopefully when I finish all of my house projects, I will hire myself out. Then I can retire from teaching to my second career. (In about 20 years).

Nice cabinet. I like how so many LJs use recycled wood. There’s no such thing as scrap.
