Console Cabinet


Found it on the side of the road. Almost threw out my back lifting it into the car as the previous owner watched from his porch. Tore out the old turntable, wiring, speakers, and amps. Built new speaker frames from the trusty pile of fence scrap wood and covered them with a houndstooth remnant piece. Re-secured the legs. Cleaned and polished.

Total cost:
3 hrs
3 Advil
$5 for hardware
$5 for fabric
...

...and the shame of going to Jo-Ann Fabrics on a monday morning....

...and waiting with a quilting group for it to open.
