    nothing I can say that hasn't been said already.... words like "impressive", "stunning", "amazing", etc, come to mind.

    Well Done!

    Man, that is really something to be proud of.
    I hope you have that room well insured!

    BTW, one of my childhood buddies was from Hinton, Alberta, a couple hundred miles west of you.
    Please help support the Creek.

    I'd never show something like this to my wife or I'd end up sleeping in the shop until I can produce something half as nice

    At the urging of several, Gary has entered this project in the Fine Woodworking contest for tool cabinets. I would urge fellow creekers to go to the site and give it a "thumbs up." If you are a subscribing member of the website, you can comment, as well.

    I will post the link below, but if the mods feel that it is inappropriate, simply do a Google search for "fine woodworking cabinet contest" it should be the first hit. Click the banner ad across the page, and it will take you to the entries. Gary's is entitled "my neander haven."

    This was a major project, involving hours of labor, substantial funds, and an unbelievable level of skill in the design, and execution - particularly with the beautiful dovetails. I encourage all fellow creekers to support this effort. I am not aware of another entry by a creeker, but if there is, then that one (or multiples) deserve our support, as well.

    This is the link -

    I just gave Gary a thumbs up and a comment. Being such a talented neander, I'm sure he'll give the prize to me for my valuable vote...
    Where did I put that tape measure...

    So are you building a shop, or a museum? That's really impressive. I be happy to have that much cabinet storage space in my shop, even if all the doors kept falling off.
