Thanks. By the way, if you are interested in wood of various kinds, you might like to check out my site: http://www.hobbithouseinc.com/personal/woodpics/

I visited your site and bookmarked it, for when I'm back to shopping for home furnishings.

It's very interesting how you achieve variety by using different kinds of wood, taking advantage of natural patterns. I like all the pieces in the above photos.

I forgot about this thread. I got some old kitchen cabinets for free, cleaned them up and installed them in my garage last week. Had to replace a board or two because there were holes cut into it for a fan. I installed the four-plug GFCI electrical outlets and painted the walls a few weeks ago.

Here's the finished product. I haven't done much cabinet work before but I'm pretty happy with the results.
