DaddyZ, it does look sorta like yours. I built mine out of Red Oak and used a Golden Oak Stain with 3 coats of Deft – Satin wood finish.

That’s a good looking piece. I think the design is pretty slick, I like the drawers behind the doors in the lower section. It kinda looks like what is on my plate today. I’m working on a 100 year old house and your unit is a lot like what the owner envisions at the end of an old claw foot bathtub. I don’t have to the build drawers, but the rest will be pretty much the same.

devann, the drawers are made out of 1/2” RO plywood. The doors cover up the plywoon edges. Even though they well sanded and the edges are rounded over, they are still PW. It looks like you don’t live too far from me (by Texas standards). I live just south of Dallas.
