Can i add more pics to this thread? Yeah it seals perfectly, have roughly 4 lbs hidden in the bottom. Stays between 66-68. I did have a usb powered fan running off a battery backup, but didnt notice any diffrence. Still need to run power through the back wall and think ill put 4 led strips vertical top to bottom.

added 1 more to it, yeah it has 0 odor, i let the paint cure for over a week before i did anything. the paint acts as a 2 way barrier, this closet backs up to my daughters bathroom, so it blocks that moisture out and the RH in, works like a charm.

not sure to fill the rest of the space with drawers or add another display shelf. only 2 things i really want a drawer for is Tats and fuentes, guessing 5ers could go into one, but its still alot of open space, about 4 feet

i used the premade door stop seals so the door has contact around the entire door jamb. if you look close on the pic i started the thread with u can see it, little white strip

to buckwheat, the top of the door is 8 feet high, couldnt see much on the top 2 shelves if they were flat

You would think that I would know that being that I'm pretty short (5'-8"). Great work!!!

Looks phenomenal bro. I love the fact that short folks wont be able to help themselves to your top-tier stuff!!

How did you do the glass? did you make the door or cut one?

made, 2 sep panes of 1/8 inch, some special treating they talked me into so if it ever breaks, it doesnt guillotine my kids head off

Tempered glass. If it breaks, it shatters into granular chunks (looks like road salt) rather than sharp piercing shards.

Awesome project, looks great!

yeah, not too sure if its tempered, i believe it just has some type of coating, so it will spiderweb but not fall apart

thanks for the kind words all, wasnt too sure how it would come out, but pretty damn proud, weather was sht today so wasnt able to work on the middle sections, maybe tomorrow
