Looks like the price of gun cabinets are going up.

You trend setter.

My cabinet is roughly the same size.

Dublehub is very wise. You WILL run out of room.

It isn't a question of if, simply a matter of when...

Just ordered 22 sq ft of cedar, damage= 100 clams + shipping, total bill so far = 200

How thick is the cedar you ordered?

Got 1/2" for the sides, back, and bottom 1/4' for the shelves and dividers.

Maybe I should toss you some smokes to fill it with when I pass through in couple weeks! Unfortunately, dont know if I'll be able to make any stops.

When you passing through?

16th..and then back through on possibly 22nd

You might need to stop on the 16th or if you are coming thru late on the 22nd for a b-day bombing, Waco would be a good time for a quick pit stop on your trip.

Well, trying to see if we can get Karin's boy outta school early. She doesn't want to take him out early. So, we'd leave SA around 3pm....heading to Ft. Worth. When we come back on 22nd, it may be from Tenn, on a 14 hour drive..

On the 16th any time would work for me, i'm off that day or on the way back I dont think you will be here too early so it's your choice. if you stop on the way up you will have gars with you and Waco would be a good place to stop, pee, and get gas.

Will talk to Karin... you close to 35?

Also, pm me your #

Will PM in a ,ittle bit, heading out the door with the wifey.

No problem... got a couple weeks almost till need it!

Nice score on the cedar. Looking forward to seeing pictures of progress...

Great idea Mikey, should look great when you're done. Can't wait to see the pictures as you go along. I should've thought of something like this, seeing that I'm in Michigan and everyone and their brother has a gun cabinet! LOL.

Where did you order the cedar from. Post pics of the completed project when it is done 🇨🇮

I will post several pics. This is the before pic posted, will have an "in progress" soon after the cedar arrives, then shortly a " finished and full" pic. Navy Chief, will send you a PM of where I got the cedar.

My wife might schitt but since it is getting cold I might be working on it in the house. I think it would be better too build it in the temperature it will be kept in because of the wood expansion and contraction and I plan on haveing the cedar somewhat seasoned before it gets attached on the cabinet. I will probable be cutting the wood outside because of the dangers of the sawdust but construction will be inside.

Seasoning wood has the same level of passion about it as aging cigars. I build guitars and most of the time the wood I use has been in my inventory for about three years before I touch it. I'm looking a gorgeous piece of birds eye maple and another of walnut right now that are probably just about ready to be turned into a couple of necks. The date tag I put on the boards says I picked them up in April of 07the. 🙂
