Hurry we have so much time and so little to do.....

Wait.....  Scratch that...... Reverse it...

Even though things have been even more crazy lately I finally got to the weekend with not only time available to work on projects, but also energy.

First was the cabinet for the bedroom closet.  I first had to convert the garage over into a spray booth so I could paint all the pieces

I know... your not impressed.  At least I have a HVLP turbine unit to spray the cabinet with oil based paint though.  It does look nice.

Then we had to take all the items out of the closet and remove all of the old shelving brackets.  Installed the side on the L and R walls which have the shelf pin holes mounted in it.  Then mounted the cabinet


The wife is not realy sure about it right now, she thinks its too big and she may be right.  Actually no matter what she decides she will be right.  Thats how it works.  But the great thing about building it yourself is that you can change it if you need to.  She is going to try it and see if I need to take it out and cut it down.

Next we need to patch and paint the walls, that is in progress now.


Also I was able to work on the pedestal table my wife bought a few weeks ago.  It has a chip in the top.  I was able to take one of the table leaves that was warped anyway and use it to cut a dutchman out of to drop into the top.  Looks pretty good for my first time ever doing this. 

I am also going to cut the extra leaf into strips and make apron pieces for the leaves so when you put them in you dont have the gap in the apron.

Then all I have to do is strip and sand the whole table and stain it again.  I should have that done by 2012 or 2013.....
