Pulled out my 37-650 tonight
#26

My $0.02 on the cabinet:

I'm like you. Decent on the 'tron wrangling, but not so much on the wood-working. Since the cabinet seems to be in poor shape, I'd take it on as a learning project without a second thought. You can't mess it up much worse than it is unless you set it on fire or drop it out the second story window. I'd be willing to bet you have a whole new feeling about it once you carefully get rid of that horrid paint job and see the bare wood.

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
