This is a cabinet I recently finished to use as a sharpening station in the shop.
The main wood is ash with a shellac and wipeon poly finish.
There is nothing really special about the piece but some may have an intrest in the door and drawer handle making process I used.

Been wanting to make something similar for my Tormec but haven't gotten around to it yet:mad:; as it is now I know that I don't keep my chisels properly sharpened because its a pain to drag the Tormec out and put it back up. Do you have yours on casters?

Gary, I have the Tomek and haven't built a station for it. I like yours; clean and functional. Good job! :D

This is finally why I ended up taking the time to finish this cabinet, tired of it not being convienient.
It does not have casters as of now. I have a certain convient spot that it will live in near the work area. If I find it is the way in the future I will install locking casters.
