Dont fall Terry! BUT if you do can I have the check?
Yes Mike, it is in que to be fixed up. I want these done just as much as y'all do.
Veneering has begun.
Sams combo unit is most likely going to be re-veneered so I picked up a 4' x 8' sheet of strait grained Walnut.
I have repaired most all the chips and they are now going to be chiseled & sanded.
Mikes 620 cabinet is horrid. Everything is loose and separated. Must have been in a basement?? Every time I repair veneer that falls off another piece falls off.
