We had a pretty productive weekend, especially considering we also found plenty of time to relax and recoup from a busy week.  Friday night Ryan started working on the cabinet doors and now has all of them made up!  Here’s a picture of one set of doors, the small ones are still clamped while the glue dries and these Ryan shimmed in so you can see what they will look like.

Doors!

Here’s a closeup of the door detail before the doors were finished:

Door details

The doors came out really great, the center is MDF beadboard but once it’s all painted you won’t be able to tell the difference.  We ordered all the hardware for the drawers (10 drawers inside) and hinges and latches this weekend as well.

While Ryan did the cabinet doors I worked on the cabinet for the gym.  I made the top out of poplar, attached it and added some trim.  Then did a final sanding and primed it.

Trim detail added under the top.

The top

All primed

Next for the cabinets, once the hardware arrives, Ryan can install the doors with the hinges (they have to be mortised).  Then we need to make the drawers and install them.  Once that’s all done and everything is sanded and primed, we’ll make a top, install it and start working on the bookcases that go above the cabinets. I’d like to get the bottom part finished so we can even use it before working on the bookcases.

And the gym cabinet just needs 2 coats of paint and a drawer to be made and added (probably).  For now I may go without the drawer and see how usable it is without it.

And just for fun, here's a new picture of Fitzy boy!
