Two coats of oil on Entertainment Center

Been busy working on the Entertainment Center.  Have two coats of oil on it.  It has darkened up quite a bit from the raw wood.  It is looking good.


Have the four drawers built for the left side, bottom cases.  Those drawers are to hold toys for the grandkids. 

My electrician Roger was here on Saturday and finished the last two outlets for the entertainment center.  We had to move a light switch for the patio, which would have been behind the cases to hold the DVD's.  We moved that through the EC and put it on the wall of the entertainment center as you go out the sliding glass door.

The other outlet would have been right behind the opened corner shelves, but the last time Roger was here, we pulled the wire to the ceiling and when I cut a spot for them in the back of the top opened case for an outlet for the spot lights in the top four opened cases. 

Roger put the outlet in for the spot lights and the switch back on for the patio light.

I have the shelves built and the face frames on those.  They are getting oil on them out in the shop.  Saturday I made my own base boards and started working on the base boards.  One of the mills wanted $3.95 a foot for baseboard trim.  That was a bit much, so I made my own.
