Cabinets that will be going under a set of stairs that will form a bar area and some storage. All of this is black stain. In person you can see the grain, in the pictures it might be noticeable, but barely. Hard to do black with the grain showing. It really needs to be a really dark gray to have a good amount of gray showing.

Big Drawer

This is a gallon jug of glue in the drawer

Hall facing side of the cabinet. Left is a panel and right is a working door.

Bar side of the cabinet. Single working door. The unfinished area has a cabinet
form an "L" into it.

And the wall cabinet which forms the "L"

The cabinets will be getting a slab countertop and the bark needs to be removed. I used a draw knife to get the job done in a few minutes. And yes, that's what I play in the background when I'm working or sanding. Angry music.

 
I had two slabs. The rear one will be the main slab. And the front one is the one I took the bark off. I only used a 15" wide by 21" long part of that slab. It's got a big honk'n knot hole that's hidden by the draw knife unfortunately. That will be filled with epoxy with a black tint along with all the other checks and defects.

I made a haunch cope to join the two boards at a 90 to cover the cabinets.

Came out pretty good. Just used a straight chisel to remove the bulk and a curved chisel to finish it off.

Something like Clair de Lune might help you deal with the anger a bit better. And you still need a haircut.
Gotta haircut the Thursday before last.

You expect me to play that piano crap in my shop?
