My Storage Dream Comes True

[Aragorn243]

Online yard sale posting on Saturday. Spent the next couple of days negotiating. Came home for $300 which I felt was a pretty good deal.

Antique, solid oak drawer fronts, sides, top and trim. Has fancy scrollwork trim on the sides. Center drawer has had finish partially stripped and handles are present. Size is about 42 inches wide, 29 inches deep and 37 inches high Eight drawers about two inches deep.

Going to be my major project for the next few weeks. Full finish strip, tightening of the drawers and joints and refinish.

This is not my photo, it's the one they used in the add. They had a piece of black granite sitting on top that I cropped out. Top is a solid oak block.

I don't know how many bayonets this will hold but I suspect it will contain all of mine with some room to spare.

Any ideas for drawer bottoms? I'm thinking some sort of thin carpet.
