I should have known myself better than to buy a cabinet to convert.

Awesome thread Tighe! If I ever get around the courage to restore my cabinets, I'm using this thread as a reference!

I like it how you have wheels on the bottom of your cabinet. I'm very seriously considering doing that to mine as well!

Those wheels are temporary, I used existing holes in the bottom to attach the wood.

I have Bob Roberts Tee nut replacements to go where the originals were, and really noice non marking casters to screw in to the nuts.


i Only wanted to remove the paint, not the lovely blue!

Ahhh. Well at least all you need is solid blue vinyl. :D

no, I saved the blue its mint. I was saying the citristrip would harded up on the previous (slate grey) paint that someone put on it. and it wouldnt make it peel or an easy remove like it was for my mortal kombat that was painted over. So I had to apply the citri strip, let it sit, then scrape the slate grey paint off with a razer blade at the proper angle, did no damage to the capcom blue at all luckily!
