Took the weekend to do some finishing on the box. I ended up using a golden pecan stain on the new face plate. I put a couple of coats on to get a nice rich finish. I did notice that I also make another rookie mistake, the grain on the once side goes in a different direction that the other sides, its not a big deal, but was avoidable.... I have also been able to get 3 nice coats of polyurethane on it. It takes awhile but it sure does make it look purdy. So far I have 3 coats on it. I do one at night and then one in the morning. I am thinking I will two more coats on it, and that should give it a real nice finish.

For grins I have added my original design drawings.
