Plans for this cabinet are available below!

This gun cabinet was fun to make, tho a little more difficult. I tried
to get someone to etch the glass with a deer or somethin but they all wanted
too much. The cabinet stands 83" tall and holds six rifles above, hand
guns below, and amo in the draw. All compartments can be locked but sence
the doors are glass, trigger locks are recommended. This project takes
a moderate skill level, table saw, router, and some miter work at the top
and bottom. The cabinet is made in two pieces, bolted together.
Sorry I didn't take any pics when i made this piece. |

This tip for etching glass was emailed to me recently:
"I saw your comment about etching on your gun cabinet. There is stuff
that can be used to make it look like etched glass. Its in the craft department
at any Wal-mart or at a craft store. Just find a stencil of a deer that
you like, glue it on with stencil glue(also in the craft department), then
carefully paint on the etching. A couple of hints: cut around the edge
of the stencil before removing, follow the directions for priming the glass
after the stencil is in place, don't over apply the etching-you'll get
bumps-its better to apply a second coat.
Hope this helps!"
