Status: offline myself i would go and paint it in a western acoustic white and put a a under shelf mount for aingle bulb 20 watt halogen in the top center of each shelf shining down on the bottles the ones in my glass cases are 20 watt they are made by hampton bay you can look them up by the name on the internet they are very simple and easy to install and put a nice amount of lighting on the bottles good luck cant wait too see it when your done ( the wires would be easy due to the opening running down the back be nice and hidden good luck bob (in reply to dollarbill) Post #: 3

Refinishing is a must and western acoustic white would certainly enhance display of your wonderful bottles along with the his described lighting effects making the display the centerpiece of any room.  (in reply to deer4x4) Post #: 4

Thanks and yes cordilleran ,Bob does have a good eye for display as was quite apparent with his beautiful display .Both his display case and his work space are top notch. So what ya think a flat black or just clean the hard ware down to there base metal color and new brass screws .I have to do some nail work to as it has the square nails that look like concrete cut nails that are corroded badly and a little wood feeling to were there some rotting that took place were it sat on a dirt floor for a while . . Not much though  ,I belive the piece was built in the early 1800 as the house it came from was built in 1830. So it in good shape for its age. Hey Rick your to funny sometimes but I can relate as I've meet a few who were questionable to . Thanks agian and good luck diggen all bill (in reply to RICKJJ59W) Post #: 6
