    Very Impressive - what is going to be your finish of choice?

    I like the lower cabinets. What are the dimensions/depth on those? I have a similar plan on my bench to build a lower cabinet unit. Did you make all of the cabinets only accessible from one side, or do the doored cabinets have doors on both sides of the bench?

    The bench looks great Mike. I am curious as to how you are going to secure a long board so that you can work an edge, say to plane it down or add some beading, etc. What's your set up?

    Looks great.

    I've been working on mine for about nine months now. Seems like I ought to be able to deliver it soon.

    I notice you have two different Belgian beers on that fine looking bench.
