Gun cabinet
 

This was one of my earlier projects and my goodness, was it ever
heavy. The glass was 1/4", and added a great weight and sense of
quality to the doors.

The wood is cherry and the coating is tung oil. There's really
nothing unique about the gun cabinet with the exception of the
back of the upper part. That's 1/4" solid cherry, rather than a
plywood. Where the cabinet touches a long gun, there is a
partially inlaid leather insert as well. The drawers in the lower
cabinet are lined with green wool felt and are used for storing
ammunition, handguns and the inevitable spare parts.

Where are the locks? Or am I just blind (still). It looks real good.
Happy Hunting.

MUCH nicer than big, ugly steel safe. And it is not politically correct
either.

I like it. It looks like gun cabinets used to look.

The gun cabinet was in my office, which was kept locked, except
when I was inside. I figured that if I ever wanted to have it
where folk could get inside, that it'd be simple enough to put in
a lock mechanism then.
