So after 200 designs and redesigns he finally came up with one he wanted. I put that design into reality for him over the weekend.

Nice, Rick! You need some help polishing that acrylic? :D

I'm going to have to save up and have you build one for me. For some reason, I feel like Vanessa is the one I should pay??? lol

I got to see it on his way home sitting in the trunk of the car. Absolutely amazing design and excellent idea on the fuge light holder. That combo of fuge/return being so large is what makes this design stand out. Really great job! Are we hooking it up this weekend?
