    Coca Cola Bath Light

    I have a young friend here in the neighborhood who is an Austin Fireman. He has a bathroom with a Coca Cola Theme He asked me to build a cabinet for a piece of glass out of an old Coke Machine Glass. Here it is. Oak from the BORG (his choice), finished with BLO, sanding sealer and 3 coats of gloss lacquer and one coat of satin lacquer. I put some long square drive screws in the miters since the Oak and Fixture make it a bit heavy.

    Nice job, Mike! My SIL decorates her kitchen with the Coca Cola theme. Lots of things you can find to use. Hope your friend likes it, you did good! Jim.

    Al: When it was all done, between the sanding sealer and the BLO, the HD Red Oak actually looked nice!
