nice!

what is the enamel top slide forward for? and what did you use for the transparent door panels?

The enamel top slides out so you have use of the full work surface. I think that’s what actually makes it a “Hoosier”. It then slides back in out of the way when not in use. For the transparent doors I just used wire mesh.

Very nice, I love Hoosier cabinets. A fine save; heck- better than new!

And the slide out surface was for breadmaking- pull out to roll dough on cold surface, like marble…
