As you may/may not know, I've got a home in Arizona that has been no-sale for a while. After spending a few weeks out there, I decided to rent it out.

I also brought a set out there for Jordan, but wasn't able to find time for a San Diego visit. I didn't treasure the idea of dragging it back to Michigan, so...

This house has a closet that goes under the stairway/landing. I hollowed out some of the area under the stairs, and decided to store a few items out there for my next trip... which will be at least a year, depending how long I decide to lease the house. Knowing that tenants love to take anything that isn't bolted down, I knew I'd have to hide my touch-up paints, cheap IKEA furniture, towels, dishes, etc. for my next stay. So I built a false wall in the closet, entombing my junk for another day.

Anyways, the pictures you see below are the result. The set on top is the RCA I picked up for $10 back in Feburary at an estate sale. Very good picture from this set I might add... Not quite Chromacolor II, but still very good.

Figured you guys might get a laugh.

I had a feeling Carmine is a man of financial wealth.

Gee... Italian and rich!

A regular wise guy?

I love Italian food and Cadillacs too!

Can we be friends?

Carmine, unless that panel is screwed down tight, you need to add a matching molding at the bottom, and make it fit perfectly with the other. That will make it appear more "solid" to the casual observer.

Nice job!

There was really no time/tools to add a molding. It's nailed to temporary studs, and gaps are filled with stucco. If somebody gets that curious and rips it down... Goodbye security deposit; hope the $100 worth of crap you found was worth $1500. :thmbsp:

I'd say you're good, nice job!
