[@johnsinfield846]

Hi Keith, you could put threaded inserts in the underside of the shelf and threads on the top end of the posts with the bottom just resting on the cabinet top. Then there won't be any holes in the top of the cabinet so it could be re-used without the shelf if desired. Also, attaching felt under the posts would help minimise damage to the cabinet top.

[@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking]

Yes sir!! Absolutely. Great idea 👌🏻👍🏻

[@MarkHeathlawfirm]

Great video. I'm interested in seeing how you dial in the epoxy brass inlays. I tried that on my own project and it didn't come out very well. I tried a similar process, went through the grits with the steel wool, but the color came out dull and I could tell it wasn't real brass. I'm wondering if the gold mica powder made the difference or if I did something wrong. It's just not nearly as shiny and realistic as what Copper Pig was able to get. I'll have to keep trying because it looks so neat when done correctly.

[@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking]

What I learned from Paul was you need way more powder than you think which is what gives you that thick peanut butter-like consistency. Otherwise, the powder will settle to the bottom and the top will be dull.

Hi Keith. Great video, thanks. Lots of shared knowledge. At 5:28 you say the doors will get 1/2" walnut banding on the edge so you trace lines with a 1/2" setup block.

So how do you take the reveal into account when you trace the door with the setup block? can you explain? Thanks a lot for the dedictaion you put in your inspiring videos.
