Corner Display Cabinet

[skeeter]

Finally got enough pictures to show that it did happen, but I appologize for the quality. They certainly aren't calendar quality. I think this is a case of the pictures being harder to get than the cabinet was to make!!!

Cabinets are Birch ply and Popular. Face frames are made with lap joints. Doors are m/t joints. Stain is Red mahogany with wipe on poly. Found a thread that used the same materials and stain so tried to follow it. The popular was still hard to control, even by sealing it first.

This is a Christmas present for DIL.

Lessons learned:
1) I am going to take John's finishing and staining class Saturday. I really
need it.
2) I need a decent camera.

Wow, that looks beautiful, Charles. If you hadn't said it, I'd never know it was poplar.

(Note to self: Charles tends to understate his work)

DIL is gonna be glad she married your son.

Really like the design for the wine storage! Did you build from a plan? Poplar never looked this good when I have worked with it!!!

The photo's aren't that bad!!!!

Great work!!! You should feel very, very proud of that accomplishment! I just wish that I could be this successful with a project of this magnitude!

Thanks for the inspiration!
