Thanks, All!

JPG: I usually love the front panel fabrication step on a restoration, but here I decided to omit both the front panel and the top-handle. This chest is for my personal stash of watch-tinkering stuff. The sharp-eyed will also note that I made the bottom drawer-fascia deep enough to prevent uner-storage of a front-drop panel as well.

All that remained was oiling the wood, sharpening my Exacto knife (on the Powr-Strop wheel added to the Shopsmith), fitting the felt, and fitting a ton of miniature junk into the chest (and its neighbor) :) .

Thanks for watching!

Looks great! I love these older wooden cabinets such as this Gerstner.
