I started to convert this old piece of furniture many months ago. It's been up and running for a while, but finally put the finishing touches on it yesterday. Thanks go out to Brad (Vroomp) who unknowingly inspired me to do this when I viewed his curio cabinet on this site. I'm really thrilled how it functions!

The only thing I didn't do myself was the Spanish cedar trays used for the drawers. I bought them from "Wineadors". I could've made them, but it just didn't make sense from a cost or time point of view. I did mill and apply the finished Spanish cedar drawer fronts.

I used a dark brown "D" shaped rubber insulation that you can get at Home Depot. It has a self adhesive on the flat side. I applied this to the back of the doors and they close against the frame of the cabinet insert that I built. Luckily, the doors on this cabinet interlock in the middle very tightly. I actually think this is good because it does allow for a small amount of exchange air.
