Default Vodka Bottle Display Case

The last of my solid oak I had laying around. It was a pretty easy project, only took a few hours. I guess the Marine they are presenting it to is a fan of the stuff. I used wipe on poly for the finish and some old digital desert uniform for the fabric. I hope this gift brings the guy one of those nights you cant remember.

USMC,
I think it needs a glass front and a little hammer on a chain with a plaque that says ' In case of Emergency, Break Glass'.

No Dovetails used, just simple dowels....I like the idea of a glass door, but with drunk Marines it would not last 2.2 seconds

I really like that, congrats. The raised "base" inside is kind of unique (to me at least).

Default Just a little Flare!

My brother came up with the idea, he is much better at woodburning than I am.

The wings finish that case off nicely. I am sure they will love it.
