Sorry about your dog
thats a good idea!! i just remembered that the person we got our land from used to have a puppy mill

but, his son (totally against that, dont worry), lives next door. Hes experienced so maybe he could do it.

Thought I'd update on my brooder cabinet. Slight change in plans ... decided I wanted shelves at the top enabling me to use another section of cabinetry that we were otherwise going to take to the reuse it shed. It had a door and a panel and then an open spot where it had once connected with another cabinet. I took the entire front off to make shelves, but will replace the edge trim.


Here is the upper portion with and without the doors. I will re-edge it with trim and paint. I kinda liked the shelf liner but it was too scuzzy to keep.

Then we were deciding what to do for the counter and I remembered we had an old table in the greenhouse so we decided to use part of the table top (the rest I will make into a bench for the front entrance at some point). The front section will be hinged. We had to cut down a bit off each edge and lost the rounded corners, but I will redo them.



Now you can get an idea what the finished product will look like ... imagine wire framed doors on the base and some decorative trim around the top. And the only thing we've bought for it so far are 5 1x3 boards!

I like. Wanta make me one.

There really isn't much to read though.

Ha haha ha! My craftsmanship isn't that great, besides - the cool thing is, it's all made already - you just gotta screw the parts together and paint!

Oh, there will be soon enough. At that pace that thread is flying they'll be done soon.
