There is nothing better than getting a coat of finish on a piece and seeing the wood come to life. That turned out really nice!

Nice job, Brad. I actually like the idea of the hidden compartments in each one. Although I'm pretty sure my son would fill them full of legos before I could even think of what to put in there.
