Pilobolus Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Wow Mike....that's some cabinet and contents! Out of pure curiosity, what are the dimensions of said cabinet? -or- If I were to find such a cabinet, do you think if I cleaned this up (of other hobbies), it might fit?

PFOOLEY Posted July 6, 2016 Author Share Posted July 6, 2016 ...If I were to find such a cabinet, do you think if I cleaned this up (of other hobbies), it might fit? It would fit width wise but you will have to strap down the back door. "I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in.
