    Back in the day, Dad built an antique-looking ice chest. He uses it to store his (cheap) Scotch. It's 48 inches tall.

    I thought I'd investigate the top today...

        Yeah, but it's a nice piece of work, isn't it?

        Hard to believe I built it over 35 years ago - it's held up very well.

                          Can't blame you ... there was no Netflix and no TNCR back then, you had to find something to do somehow.

                                Actually, now that I look at that picture, I realize I should have done a better job of matching the grain on some of the pieces.

                                For example the grain of the rail on the bottom of the upper door on the left and the top of the upper rail of the large door on the right don't quite match. I could have chosen a better piece of plywood for the field of the door on the upper left as well...

                                  That's a nice piece, George. Very nice. Most people don't have a clue just how much time and effort it takes to build something like thzt.

                                    George is kind of my hero. l337 in the ways of computers, digital hoarding, carpentry, piano, and (cheap) scotch.
