Default My Van

HAd some time on my hands since I finished this house which is now up for sale so I used some left over materials to build some cabs for my van. Used some 5/4 mahogany left over from my porches for the stiles and rails and some poplar to route out my raised panels and luan I had left to panel the ceilings and walls.
Made my own green stain...I've been dying to try out green stain for a while now...better in my van than on someones hardwood floor

Looks good. Is the van leaning? Are you going to balance the other side with more cabinets?

You appear to be replicating Captain Nemo’s salon. As stated your craft appears to be listing… and the avatar definitely Nemo. Your woodwork even resembles some from a Nemo movie.
