<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeepfreak81, post: 25223832, member: 93888&quot;]Hey all, been a while since I updated this partly because I didn&#039;t have time to work on my project.&nbsp; Anyway I&#039;ve made progress and have a few pictures to share.</p><p><br /></p><p>So with the foam down in all 5 drawers I was trying to decide how to deal with airflow.&nbsp; The more airflow the better but also I want the cabinet to look ok.&nbsp; I ultimately put the cabinet on the drill press and used a hole saw to make some evenly spaced holes in the back.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1607173[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Next step was to apply 3 generous layers of shellac on all the drawers.&nbsp; I could have done a better job with this but honestly wasn&#039;t super concerned with it.&nbsp; If I sanded a bit between coats it would have been more even but the face of the drawers came out ok which was the most important part.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1607174[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1607175[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The drawers sat for a week, providing plenty of time for the alcohol to evaporate.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then today I figured out how to cut the velvet and get that stuck down.&nbsp; I&#039;ve got 1 drawer done and the results are acceptable.&nbsp; I&#039;m not great at this sort of thing anyway so based on that I&#039;m happy with how it came out.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1607176[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>So next will be to get the velvet down on the rest of the drawers then I still need to shellac the box itself.&nbsp; Hopefully will have this wrapped up soon![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
