Worked on this thing almost all day yesterday! It is made from some very very old wood that came from my late great grandmothers house that I helped tear down years ago. My grandpa kept a bunch of the wood, I put some to use! It's 4 tiers, holds most of my daily use stuff. I cut and lightly sanded all my boards, Drilled them, then glued them together. When everything was together I took a grinder and wire wheel and sanded the newly cut edges to make them look a little older. Coated it with some satin polyurethane, glued some leather on the bottom of it and call it done! Cant really see it in the pics the some of the wood rotted, when I took the wire wheel to it it took the rot out and left with good wood. There is a very distinct texture in it. I'm very very happy with the outcome, although the poly glossed it up a little more than I wanted. How do ya'll think it turned out?
Before the polyurethane, I would have left it like this but had wayy too many splinters!
