PostSubject: My Baccy/Liquor Cabinet   Thu Mar 11, 2010 6:31 am

This is something I have been working on this winter.
I took an old microwave cabinet I built about 15 yrs ago, and added the top doors, locks, sealed the bottom section to keep out light, painted it, lined it with spanish cedar veneer, built the pipe rack and attached it to the top. I have some glass to get cut for the top to protect it.
It's alot better than the old plastic tubs I was keeping my stash in.

Very nice indeed. The cedar paneling is a very clever idea.

Thanks for the compliments fellows, I really enjoy working on stuff like this, I find it relaxing. I can tinker in my shop smoking, drinking, and listening to whatever I'm in the mood for, without anyone but myself judging my work. sunny

Nice work EJ, but you'll find the humidity in your area is detrimental to close tolerance work. The joints will separate causing the cabinet to go out of square resulting in the shelves detaching and dumping the contents, making a mess,,,possibly a safety hazzard.,,,In a concerned gesture I propose you ship that time bomb (and dangerous contents) directly north where I will keep an eye on it and report any suspicious shifting of materials so the replacement you build will be rock solid,,,,,, you can sleep secure in the knowlege your family is safe,,,

Thanks for your concern friend.
But, I've already done the engineering for that situation and planned the tolerences accordingly. If such a situation does start to develop an alarm system will alert me so I can take measures to prevent spillage, thus averting disaster. Very Happy

Very Happy Laughing Very Happy Laughing
