Title: Gun Cabinet Pics
Post by: Hunting Cowboy on February 16, 2008, 11:52:51 AM: Today's the day the new owner of my Gun Cabinet comes to pick it up. Hated to get rid of it. It was one of those projects you hope gets passed along to your kids. The new gun safe will be a much better place for guns and valuables. This would make a nice book shelf or china cabinet.

CJ-5, I did build the cabinet myself. I will PM you how much I sold it for. Less than I was asking though.

Bone, If you have the skill, talent, and patients for taxidermy work, than you've probably got what it takes to be a woodworker! That cabinet ended up in Yakima which is your neck of the woods!

I'm already second guessing myself on the size of safe we ordered!

I like the almost cherry looking wood on that cabinet and obviously the handles.

Post by: Hunting Cowboy on February 25, 2008, 06:27:18 PM: Just got the safe delivered last week. Love it. BUT........I WISH I WOULD HAVE WENT WITH A LARGER SIZE!!! I knew that going in. I had heard that advise and it is so true. But, it's what I could afford. My guns are in, a few photo alblums, Personal family videoes, valuables, valuable papers/documents, etc. It sure makes you prioritize though! Still working it out. I feel better that these things are secured and fireproof!

Our family rule: find what you want and then up grade before you buy. And always try to buy used if possible.

Can't afford the guns I want to fill it with now :'( But at least the kids will have something to remember me by :)
