Thanks for the kind words. Here are a few more pics. I don't have any of the actual construction, but basically they are just open boxes with doors front. The upper cabinet doors open up. I had intended to put some pneumatic supports for these doors but I find it really isn't necessary. A...

It probably was my car. There are a number of us that like to drop by Cdn Tire Friday nights, look at the cars and then go for a drive - up the mountains, out to Horseshoe Bay or ???? I think we have had up to 6. Yes, Mike did paint my car. Those guys are artists! Greg
