greasemonkeyredneck Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 OK. Here's a few photos of the CD case I'm building. It's pretty much done. I have it taken apart to stain. I snapped these after staining everything. It is made of pecan with Minwax polyshades gloss pecan stain. I know that sounds redundant, putting pecan stain on pecan wood. That's what I've been told anyway. I think this combination brings out a beautiful wood grain color though. The bottom has slots to hold five rows of CDs, just like the tray does. I'll snap a few more photos after I reassemble everything tomorrow. Quote

Marshall Posted November 3, 2009 Report Posted November 3, 2009 You would have too have a lot of CD's for this one , I like it nice touch . ................Marshall Quote
Firedkm Posted November 3, 2009 Report Posted November 3, 2009 Holy Cow that is huge! Looks great! Quote
shadylady0447 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 Wow, greasemonkey, that sure looks a lot nicer than the plastic ones ours are in! LOL You did a beautiful job on the case. My husband is in the process of transferring all of our vinyl LP's to cd's. I can't even tell you how many we have. Lots of them are from the 60's. This summer, my older brother brought us all of thiers...the box weighed about 80 pounds! He's 9 years older than me so there is music from the 50's. His wife had every LP from every Elvis Presley movie. I don't think we'll live long enough to put these all on cd's! I have about 7,000 songs in my computer thanks to my son....all types of music......even some rap! LOL No, Marshall, I don't listen to it and I don't know why its in there! Always a pleasure to see your finished pieces. Thanks for showing us. Quote
greasemonkeyredneck Posted November 4, 2009 Author Report Posted November 4, 2009 You would have too have a lot of CD's for this one , I like it nice touch . ................Marshall Look close at the last two photos. I do have a lot of CDs. By the time I finish recording all my tapes to CD, if this isn't full, it will be mighty close to it. And I'm always buying CDs when I can find some of the older country that I don't have. Wow, greasemonkey, that sure looks a lot nicer than the plastic ones ours are in! LOL You did a beautiful job on the case. I don't think we'll live long enough to put these all on cd's! . I have a room on the front of my shop that is closed off from the dust and all. When I'm doing my woodwork, I'll set my computer up in that room hooked to the tape player and let it go. I'll check on it from time to time for when to flip the tape. When both sides are recorded, I'll pour a cup of joe and go do my cleaning up with my audio editor program and burn the CD, then set up the next one. Then go back to work. Quote
