    I love everything about this flip. The legs. Hardware and the new top with the cross direction of the wood. Very original. The little shelf at the bottom for a blanket was smart. This would fit in a bedroom a living room or a dinning room. Multi purpose furniture. 😻

That made it unique, but not only that, what you did to the top of it with that lovely angled trick!. I loved that! 🤓 A complete transformation! I could tell this is an older video because I'm already so used to your new workshop, and I could tell you had some difficulty moving around.
