Sliding cabinet doors

Well, I was sitting in the Man Cave looking at my shelves that store my reloading equipment and decided they look cluttered. I came up with the idea of sliding doors, not realizing that this project would absolutely test my skills. I wanted to do it cheap so I only bought the aluminum rails on the bottom and one sheet of 1/4 inch plywood with one good side.

 

Cutting the grooves required to let the doors slide freely without touching each other was a trick. I did this on my small table saw. It came out pretty good.

The rest of the pictures are pretty much self explanatory.

Meat processing, my Wife, Mother and Myself did last month...

We made 30lbs of Kielbasa, 40 lbs of Salami, 30 lbs of Hunters snack sticks and 30 lbs of Jerky from the Elk and Deer we harvested this year....











Computer table refinish

I refinished my computer table last week and it turned out real nice.



When I was done, I decided to refinish the other table that goes with my computer table, a little different. I had to see if I had any hidden talents, so I attempted to do some wood burning on it before the stain and varnish.
It didn't come out to bad. I will take more pictures when the stain and varnish have been applied..







OK, I just got done (the next day) with the stain and one coat of varnish..
