Guys,

Check this out...

My wife, Mrs. 90Grad, built this entire thing.  She searched eBay for the crates and pulls, and then she built the cabinet unit.  The top is made from an old board retrieved from a local saw mill.  She spent hours polishing, sanding, painting, etc.  It looks AWESOME.

That looks really, really good. Seems like some wives hate the collection of old pop memorabilia, yours added to it lol
