Assembled the upper portion today. No pics of that as I was working on that in the basement workshop, where it's a small enough space that I couldn't step back far enough to get a picture of even half of it.
But I did get this pic - had to clean out the corners for a stopped rabbet on the top, for where the backer panel will sit in.
Got the garage warmed back up during today so that tonight I could start applying finish to the parts that will be clear finished. The top, the inside of the upper cabinet, and the shelves will all be clear finished. The lower case, door, drawer fronts, and the outer portion of the upper cabinet will be milk paint.
Finish is General Finishes Arm-R-Seal.
And the underside of the counter top. Yeah, it'll look good - the crotch feather is more pronounced on what will be the top. The knots have a little more figure on the underside, but they were more sound/solid on what will be the top side, hence the orientation of that portion.
