Now and then we get something more interesting than the run of the mill toe rails, hand rails and other moldings on a boat. This is a freezer cabinet for a sportfishing boat. It had several problems and had to be totally rebuilt. I got to make it pretty again.

Never idle it seems. Some smaller projects, a couple big ones pending.
