With the final finish applied to all surfaces the bottom case is now 99% done (its missing the bottom molding, which I won't apply 'til the very end).

Looks great!
Beautiful! I love how you can still see the wood grain.
I completed the fabrication of the top case's side doors and attached them using the same "post and hook" latching mechanism that I used on the bottom case.
O_O ..this thing is going to be ridiculously big isn't it.. :D
This week the window in the doors were routed out. Then the doors were scraped, sanded, stained and finished with a satin wipe-on polyurethane finish. Here's what a door looks like after three coats of polyurethane:
Mmm, shiny. :D
In between staining and finishing the parts to the top case, I worked on fabricating the front doors using the same build techniques as all of the other doors in this project. The final width an height of the doors was gradually achieved by numerous trips to and from the jointer.
Great build, have not been here for some time and just saw this amazing build.
Keep it up =)
Holycrapthatisalotofclamps! :D
Beautiful craftsmanship.
