Just before my BIL got a job after being out for a year and a half, I asked him to build me a cabinet I found on the internet. Well, with going back to work, they told me it would be a Christmas present, but late. Not a problem. Told me it would be ready for Easter, since we are going to Michigan then to visit. Well, he just emailed me the picture of the cabinet. The first one is the picture of the Dingo Cabinet that I sent him the picture of. The others are of the one he made. First picture came out a little dark. I have the best BIL in the world. Can't wait till Easter to get it, and straighten up my sewing room.

Wow, that is fantastic.
|
How beautiful you lucky girl! He's very talented.

Ooooo! He *is* a good brother in law! You better make him a quilt to thank him!
|
All I have left to on his quilt is put on the binding. It's going to the LA tomorrow.
|

|
amazing...cant wait til you get it so we can see it in action in the home place
|
WOW, stunning work! I definitely agree with you he is the best brother in law!
|
My husband did woodworking and I think I know a little about it, hehehe and from what I can tell the one John made is much nicer than the photo he had to work from. Lucky you!
|
what a good BIL..
|
A master at his craft!
|
Wow! Bet he'll be taking orders pretty soon from members of the board! That's a fabulous cabinet! Enjoy!
|
very nice
|
Wow, that's wicked!!
|
Very nice!
|
Wow! Has he ever thought of making and selling the cabinets on esty.com? It's a beautiful piece!
|
Wow! I much prefer you're over the Dingo. He did a most awesome job on it! WOwowow!
|
What a gorgeous cabinet....worth waiting for.
|
He did a beautiful job on your beautiful cabinet. I like the doors closing over the drawers. He did a much better job than the sample picture you sent him. Lucky you.
|
That is wonderful! Looks like something you will really enjoy using.
|
Even if he does have a job now, he might want to think about making these on the side. The one you sent him a picture of looks to be particle board and his seems to be either solid wood or furniture grade plywood. If he factors in time and materials he might be able to make money doing custom work?!
|
He did a fantastic job with your cabinet. Looks very well made and professional.
|
Wow! Wonderful cabinet! :)
|
Woodworking wonder.
I wonder what the shipping costs would be to my house! |
Wow!!! If he can work that well from a photo, he should be much in demand as a cabinet maker in some of the shops here in N. TX that do work for custom homes in Dallas.
Absolutely beautiful job he did!! He should sign and date it with a woodburner, like we quilters do with labels. |
Beautiful cabinet. I love it. I want one, too.
|
This is a fantastic project. Your BIL did a great job that exceeded the picture you sent him. Hope you enjoy it for years to come.
|
Yours is WAY BETTER than the picture you sent for him to go by. Lucky you!!!!!!
|
Fantastic workmanship!! Definitely worth the wait ...
|
we all have so much to be thankful for. He's a keeper!
|
Beautiful! He did a wonderful job.
