But I kind of like it.<br />Olav dropped 10 kg of chalk one day, so I'll try to use some of that for a filler in the future home made milk paint.<br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-10260944937083664572017-11-16T03:15:06.675-08:002017-11-16T03:15:06.675-08:00Hi Jeff

I tried not to procrastinate, and to be as efficient as possible.<br />A challenge was that I hadn't much stock to choose form for the glue up. Most of my old boards have been used on the small barn, and I haven<br />t really milled any wood lately, but it is also nice to get to the bottom of the stack once in a while.<br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-11725838200564164842017-11-15T23:35:58.175-08:002017-11-15T23:35:58.175-08:00It turned out beautiful!

I think the colour is really nice. and I am amazed at how the milk paint was to use. <br />The footprint of the cupboards is only something like 12" deep and 19" wide as far as I remember. The height is 76".<br />While I made the shelves I thought that it looked awfully shallow, but the proportions work really well once the face frame and the doors are mounted. <br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-2605486394214897362017-11-15T15:08:09.651-08:002017-11-15T15:08:09.651-08:00Hi Bill

I hadn't really considered such a cabinet, but will be on the lookout for a space in my house for one now.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17028867150859768771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-37738900893235683862017-11-15T08:18:49.637-08:002017-11-15T08:18:49.637-08:00Very nice Jonas!
