Had a good Saturday. Started assembling the cabinet. It does not have the amount of carvings I initially thought I wanted. The wife stated, "it's too busy and you lose the figures". So I am going to listen and see how it looks (if I need to I can add appliques later). I have learned I am happier when I make her happy. Still have not thought out what the top will look like. Once complete I will post plans with dimensions since I am literally doing the design as I go.
Hopefully you can't tell the scales on the feet are opposite of each other after my glue up issue on I can't remember if its up or down...so I'll just wing it and guess...I have a 50/50 chance I am right. lol. Yup. I am one of them.
I can't wait to apply the poly and see what treasure I have in the wood pattern. I have bits and pieces of purple heart and paduk which I will be throwing in for visual impact.
