My wife wanted an new oak cabinet to match our side board

not bad for some left over oak flooring still need to varnish it but all but done.

Nicely executed - I like the crisp contemporary lines in that.

I should think your wife is pleased isn't she??

Well done and excellent way to recycle the remnants.

An excellent way to use up off-cuts, so nicely done. What sort of varnish are you going to go for?..I tend to use matt acrylic these days (from Homebase...nowhere else seems to stock it) if I varnish anything as you can whack on a couple of coats in a day with minimum drying time 'twixt them (say about an hour) I've gone right off polyurethanes 'cos of the yellowing effect they can have on pale timbers - Rob

just finished vanishing it,

oh no, where has it gone?
:shock:

wishful thinking do you think it will work on the kids, if so there may be a demand for it.
