It was exceptionally...unusually...warm at 10:30 pm tonight. I opened the garage door to let the house garage air out before taking these pictures. After being somewhat cool the past several evenings, it is really warm tonight!

The first coats of lacquer always highlight a cabinet's flaws, and this cabinet has several. However, I think I'll take the flaws over tossing this cabinet in the burn pile at Kutztown. Icon_eek

So...tomorrow...grain filler! Icon_biggrin
