You did a fantastic job! I have one just like it I would love to have it re-done.

Very nice job on the cabinet. Just remember that there is not a vaccination or twelve step program for this illness. (The collecting fixing bug.)

thanks. you said it right. just this month alone, i already accumulated 6 vintage machines. i still have 6 more cabinets to refurbish (2 martha washington for white fr, 1 for 15-88, 2 for my 27 treadle and 1 for my 16-188).

actually i don't think i did it right or did it nice as the minwax polyshade is so unforgiving. you really need to make it right the first time otherwise you'll have all the streaks as what is on my cabinet. but it look better the the before pics and more presentable. next time i will just use a regular minwax stain and apply poly afterwards. that way you'll have better control. this is my first cabinet refinish so for me i did just ok.

thanks to everyone also for the nice words.
