Angie's Cabinet

Dave finished building Angie's cabinet.  You may recall that this all started with a slab of marble that Angie found by the dumpster next to her apartment (over a year ago).  She asked Dave to make a little table to hold the slab of marble.  Dave is a bit of an over-achiever, so her simple little table turned into a gorgeous oak cabinet with shelves and doors.

Here are a couple of photos of the cabinet and doors before Dave stained them.

The hole in the top will allow Angie to remove the slab of marble by pushing it from the bottom if she ever needs to move the cabinet. The shelves and doors will also be removable. (The cabinet is lying on its side waiting to be stained.)

One of two doors.

Dave will varnish the pieces tomorrow and Friday, so we should be able to deliver the finished product to Angie sometime next week (with a little help from Paul).  Dave and I can load the pieces into Dave's Envoy here in Lincoln, but we'll need help hauling them up the stairs to Angie's apartment in Omaha.  Dave will assemble the cabinet on site.  I'll post a photo of the cabinet once it is in its new home.

Now Dave is trolling the house looking for new projects.  He has offered to build some new cabinets for my office upstairs.  This could be fun!

I guess we could call his next design "Architecture of the Office."
