Good job. I was facilities mgr at a chemical plant in West Ky before I retired. I had a mini split installed for 2 offices in the summer once and come bad weather, a gutter failed and promptly flooded the outside unit. Of course it froze and rendered it useless. The guys set a bullet heater on a pallet, lifted it up and aimed it at the unit until it thawed. Then we did exactly what you did. Worked perfectly.

$300 for a piece like that seems like a steal. You said it had carving but that's like 25 times what I would have expected.

No way to lose on a piece like this. I wouldn't be able to buy the wood for $300 if I was to build one. I'm pleased. The wife will stuff it with quilts that she has made. That'll be two less white melamine cabinets in the family room. Those things are eyesores, to me.
