I'm gonna start on mine myself after the season. I've framed houses my whole life. This will be my first venture into furniture work. Pretty confident I can handle it.
I'll do yours cost plus 25% if u want

Give me two cases of beer, and you furnish all the wood. I'll make you one.

Do you have a plan on the type of joinery you will use? Full length box joints I think would look good an emulate the old style ammo cases. Another option would be half-blind dovetails. Both I think would look great.

If you need the lumber and are in the NOLA area go to Riverside Lumber. They have all kinds of exotic wood and can reccomend a carpenter to you.
I am assuming you live in diamondhead so this is not such a bad drive. Riverside is off of Downman Rd in NO east.

I know a guy who does that kind of stuff. He's very good at it, but it would probably be over a year before he got to your project.

Ever talk to them? I let them know some guy from mississippi needed a gun cabinet made.
