INSPIRATION - Cedar Log Spacesaver (for the bathroom)

http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=250501

I'll admit, I don't make a lot of high class furniture. But, this
is lowevr than my usually furniture standards. It's a good idea, but
the workmanship looks pretty shoddy to me - gaps, etc. So, you guys who
think you don't do so great, don't feel bad.

I think I may make one of these myself. But, I'll probably use
plywood, and no mechanical fasteners. It won't be museum quality, but I
figure it'll look a lot better than this. I don't think Ill do doors
either, just open shelfes, for towel stacking. Might start storing the
toilet paper supply there too. In fact, may make two, one for each
bathroom. .

It makes the big cracks in the log chinking less objectionable. Leave
gaps and cracks - call it rustic.

I don't see how you can gauge the workmanship based on that picture?

There's a link to a zoomable picture.

Snip.

Those cabinets were in K Mart a few years ago for about half that price.
