This was one of my earlier projects and my goodness, was it ever
heavy. The glass was 1/4", and added a great weight and sense of quality to the doors. The wood is cherry and the coating is tung oil. There's really nothing unique about the gun cabinet with the exception of the back of the upper part. That's 1/4" solid cherry, rather than a plywood. Where the cabinet touches a long gun, there is a partially inlaid leather insert as well. The drawers in the lower cabinet are lined with green wool felt and are used for storing ammunition, handguns and the inevitable spare parts. -- Nonny ELOQUIDIOT (n) A highly educated, sophisticated, and articulate person who has absolutely no clue concerning what they are talking about.

Where are the locks? Or am I just blind (still). It looks real good.

MUCH nicer than big, ugly steel safe. And it is not politically correct either. I like it. It looks like gun cabinets used to look. |

I figured that if I ever wanted to have it where folk could get inside, that it'd be simple enough to put in a lock mechanism then. -- Nonny ELOQUIDIOT (n) A highly educated, sophisticated, and articulate person who has absolutely no clue concerning what they are talking about.
