Shop time with a friend - re-building chest of drawers

Yesterday, Saturday,  I had the great pleasure of a very good friend coming over to work in my shop.

I really enjoy having other men over to help them with shop projects.    My wife calls them "play dates" with my friends.   I call them "Men doing Manly things with other Men".   

David, my friend, has agreed to help his adult daughter with a used furniture modification.

She had found an chest and wanted it 5 inches taller.   David and I talked during the week at work and decided on a plan.  We started about 11am and finished at 4:30pm.    

One piece of trim needs to be added and the whole thing will be spay painted to get everything to blend together.   

He was VERY happy with the results. 

Here are a few pictures of the work.
