Really nice work. People that don’t do this stuff won’t know what’s involved. It’s a labor of love for those of us that work with wood.

I'll do shop & garage cabinets for people but don't need a full time job. I had one of those for 40 years.

That is sweet! I have the greatest respect for folks that can do work like that and enjoy doing it.
I dabbled with making shelving and cabinets for my house and garage 30 years ago. Did not have the knack or the patience for it...30 years later, I really don't have the patience.

Made the vanity for the Man Cave Bathroom. Vanity top/sink will be 37x22" which will be plenty of room to wash up.
Face frame and raised panel doors are out of 2" walnut. It's what I had in the wood rack so it got used.
Wife will prime and paint tomorrow and hopefully the bathroom will be done. One more project off the list.

seeing your vanity cabinet, reminded me of when we were building our home. I talked to our cabinet maker and got him to shift the doors up to just below the top, remove the blank face plate and add a drawer onto the bottom across the entire width. It give so much more storage and un-wasted space. He liked the idea so well, he started making that his normal in all custom homes. I'll take a picture when I think about it to post.

That's some amazing work there. When I remodeled our bathrooms, many years ago, the kids were all still little. Since the wife and I are tall people, we make our base cabinets higher, and the kids couldn't use the sinks without a stool. That's a pain in the neck in a small bathroom, so I built slide out steps for them in both vanities. Located between the upper cabinets and lower drawer, I laminated two pieces of 3/4" plywood for the step, and they could just pull it out when needed, then slide it back in when done. Worked for years!!!

Looks like all that’s missing is some soap.

Finished the bathroom walls today inside the mancave. Used pallet wood stained 3 different colors. The wife figured out the pattern and we put it up. Just have to hang the sliding barndoor.
