The new 33″ wide x 7′ tall dvd rack was finally finished and installed in the house yesterday. It only took three weeks to complete the job. Ultra-picky me had to have the right color of stain … which meant a coat of pre-stain conditioner, a coat of cherry-colored gel stain and then two coats of regular oak-colored stain. It fits perfectly in the space I planned it for and has more than enough space for my ever expanding dvd collection (see yesterday’s post for details). Ah! Working with wood makes me feel all manly. Plus it can be fun and satisfying … I am talking “pine” and not “cock” for those of you with dirty minds.
