Well, the ‘soon to be battery box’ got a stain job with the remaining door stain today. We also picked up a piece of wood for the top of the box…we had some pieces of wood here for the top but none of them were large enough. 
The wood for the outside of the box are all scraps and in different states of being sanded and planed…so there are some gaps that need some painting so it is all dark from the outside.
Tis shot was after the first coat of stain before I went at it with a small brush, Now for hinges, the top and retrim…and the base for the batteries.
..we are undecided how we want the flip-top to work..either 1 door or 2 but we should know soon..We REALLY want the box done so we can begin renovating in the area where the batteries are currently housed. SOON!
