The cabinet is made from Poplar & sports some unique features that I came up with. The combination of the aluminum front & back panels along with the transparent red finish on the wood makes for a beautiful look.

The handle is recessed and sits flush with the top of the cabinet when depressed. The aluminum feature plates were given a spun finish. This is the cabinet before painting.
