    Made well - all those glue blocks. It's not junk furniture.

    I plan to get a Dremel and try to do a pattern on top. Wish me luck!
    and stay tuned.

    Do you think I can do this on the doors with a Dremel Stylo? Should it be smaller?

    You might want to start easier, like maybe your second image, until you get a feel for how the Dremel feels and grips the wood. I think you also might want a multi or Variable speed one....and a comfortable but firm grip.....practice, practice, practice FIRST to get a feel for HOW it feels with the grain and DIRECTION of the grain of the wood!!! It REALLY IS fun to do!!!!:happy::happy::):)

    What they’re resting on has a raised rim, one door is off the edge.
