haha yeah no kids around here, that is why I am not too worried about getting stuff spilled on it. just me and the gf. but i snagged this flat file off of craigslist and it was pretty cheap. I know billy has one for sale, that has the same dimensions, all you would need to do is redo the top and add...

Looks great. Well done. I finally picked up a cabinet myself which will need a bit of TLC to get it ready to use. Threads like this are a good source for some great ideas. Yeah, I got a lot of my ideas from the threads here as well as asking questions. Good luck on your project and start a thread, ...

Finished up the Flat File today. Ran into some issue with the screws that came with the handles, they were a bit long and I had to cut them down a bit, but in the end they turned out just fine. Really happy with the final product and for the ability to put this project to an end. Wanted to take a qu...

You guys don't worry about someone putting a big glass of OJ on there and it being knocked over? Also, that looks really nice, congrats! :notworthy: No not really. It goes to the edge so if something spills over it will probably go over. But in the random off chance it gets in all of my prints are ...

So the glass got done early and I couldn't help but drive out there immediately and get it. This is it on top. Very happy with the way it turned out and am only waiting for the handles on Monday.

Thanks guys! Shipping confirmation just came through and the handles will be here on Monday.

The glass should be here by mid-next week. Then done with the entire project!

appreciate it. going to use it as a coffee table/flat file since I live in a small apartment right now.

Created this in order to not spam Mcgraws thread. So a while back I bought a flat file and pretty much didn't do anything to it. Well I figure I should update the progress of it and what I was able to do after the last couple of days. I have a wooden top that has already been built by Mcgraw (thanks...

will get some pictures up when i get started as well as when i figure out how to post on them on the forum

Yeah. The flat file is mine. I have decided to keep it in the end and not go through with a purchase for another. Gonna spend some good solid time on it and finish it up. Big thanks to Mcgraw for letting me keep in his garage.
