I'm repurposing a small bookshelf that my father originally had built by someone to hold his sheet music and books for his organ playing enjoyment. He made me bring it (and the sheet music...) north with me earlier in the year prior to his passing. As an open shelving unit, it's not terribly useful around here, so I'm making it a closed cabinet for my older daughter to store her snacks, etc., in her "sorta-apartment-like-space" here in our home. While I could just do a plain paneled door, I have this big yellow thing called a CNC. So I put it to work to make a more interesting door panel with a carved rooster.
This started as 5/4 full 1" thick material and was pocket surfaced down with my spoilboard cutter and then the carving was roughed and finished before cutting the edges. I think it's going to look quite nice when it's done.
