              @BrockBoyts Cowabunga, dude! Fantastic build, especially for a first cabinet. I love the attention to detail, hinged access panels, and the custom handles etc. are just great. Impressive work!

                @caver01 Thanks man! I have a stubborn personality so I didn't give up on this thing until it had exactly what I wanted. Haha. So many people along the way helped me with my questions. It was a learning process. I am starting to brainstorm my next cabinet. :)

                    That really turned out great! I want to build one a lot like it. I'd love to see more on your build like a parts list, how you mounted the usb ports, and anything you would have done different.
