Thanks Gnomey waiting on the plans for the wall work bench now should get started in a couple of weeks Cheers

VB in answer to that question from long ago I reload 45acp,.308,30-06,8MM and 30cal carbine.I do find reloading relaxing and away to burn up that time when nothing is on TV and modeling is not in the blood.The Thompson works but is a West Hurley Thompson from the 80's and there semi version one day I will convert to an SBR.Cheers Kevin

Well there is a reason that I have not been building as much and here it is,the cabinet.What I have to do now is the wood doors and the glass doors themselves which will be the easy ones.The wood is all oak and pricey if I might add and I will be buying a biscuit cutter no more dowels for me(the frame you see was doweled).I am think'in that she is looking pretty good thus far and this was the last of the planes out of the house(built).Some Pics......

I guess I am getting alittle excited to see this part coming to a close.What I have here is pics of the glass doors installed all except for one(one piece of glass cut wrong).I am now at the point of building the solid wood doors and they will be a panel cut type out of oak.I will have to reread and refresh the memory on the build of these.While the glass doors look nice they are far from perfect but will do,as a grade I would give myself a 75-80 not bad for my very first rodeo.I have all the 1/48,1/32 and 1/24 now present in the shop.The little computer room is about to become the wife's for whatever she likes.

I wanted to add for any considering doing this you will save a bundle.I have had two cabinet makers state that the going rate is $230 L/F and I have 7.5' and so far I am in for about $550 and maybe $250+ for the doors. Cheers Kevin
