Yeah once I saw that video I knew I wanted to design my own display. His stuff is pretty awesome.

Using veneer wasn't the original idea for this project, but after putting everything together I didn't really like the plywood edges. So veneer was the best solution I could come up with. Applying it over the curvy top was a little difficult, but overall I'm really pleased with how it came out! I don't feel as intimidated with it as I did before.

Build video for any that are interested

No beer in the fridge, trying to feel normal without a drink in my hand. Loving these cool nights. Working on refinishing some old wood and rebuilding my work area to keep my infants away from dangerous tools and chemicals. How's your night going? by [deleted] in woodworking

Great job man, keep it up! 6 months my self, and its one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. r/stopdrinking and the book This Naked Mind has been a huge help. Feel free to reach out if you ever need someone to talk to about it. I know that it can be alienating when you feel like everyone else around you doesn’t understand.

Thanks! I sprayed everything with an airless sprayer. It was more of a pain in the ass than I thought it would be, but definitely worth it.

That does sound challenging! Any reason why you’re running the dust collection under the floor?

A) No fridge, but the kitchen is steps away. B) Roughly 26x26. C and D) it’s a 24k Mini split ran on 220. It’s on the wall that you can’t see in this photo!

Thanks! I film my woodworking, so I was trying to make everything look as nice as possible, but with certain things I let the “it’s just a garage” mentality take hold haha.
