    I think that is a very nice cabinet and a great project. Did you design it yourself or did you work from a plan or were you inspired by a cabinet you saw somewhere?

    Thanks,
    Phil

        The one that kind of inspired me also inspired me to change it because this was a better stronger design that went cleaner with our house so I basically re designed it.

          That's the first time I've ever seen a gun case like that. Very nice and unique project.

            Very unique slant on a display case idea. It really stands out from what you'd imagine.

            Good Job!

                    I can't add anything new but I agree completely that this project is both unique and very nice.

                      I like the idea, Phil. That looks real good, first project or not. The finish looks good on the knotty pine. Good job.
