That was unbelievable! Never saw anyone do this before and the patina was a fantastic idea. I do the same thing with wood but never thought of doing it with metal. I just bought a new tool box and now I want to sand it down!

Thanks man. It is a fun project too. There’s no way to screw it up. The more layers you do the more you can sand to make it really pop.

It’s not for everyone. But I wanted to practice with paint mixing and layering skills. Was good practice. I use these skills when paint matching my truck projects. Still use this cabinet today to store my boxed tools.

It's amazing how heavy particle board with a veneer can be. That's a good sign it was a dense profile meant for rough use, though.

Felt like concrete honestly. Good thick veneer too should stand up to the abuse I’m gonna throw at it.

The extra storage has been super nice. I use it as an extra workbench now. Mounted my bench grinder and bench vice to the top. Works great.

I just got one just like that but with 5 drawers a little too tall. I will put it in between 2 gladiator tall cabinets. I love red but my son wants me to paint it black with red strips in the front. Do u think it will look good red in between the 2 tall gray gladiator cabinets? I think I will be adding a piece of wood to the top too to make it look nicer

It’s metal so welding caster on would be easy enough. I’m considering doing that to make it mobile. 🙌🏼

It’s still sitting there under the cover waiting for all my other items to get checked off the list. Between that and my day job there’s simply not enough time in the week for much of anything. Don’t worry though. I’ll get caught up and back to it as soon as possible! It’s been calling to me for sure! 🤨
