Finally blew the dust off my mini for springtime. I love this thing. Sometimes I don’t get around to driving it for months at a time and it always fires up.

I had some pallets from work I decided to turn into a mud kitchen for my kiddos. Equipped with a functional sink (hot and cold are “t-d” into a quick connect fitting for the garden hose. I wasn’t sure where to start but ended up thinking it all up as I was building it.

I couldn’t decide if I wanted to paint it or just clear coat it. I ended up torching the whole thing, sanding, then used a high quality UV resistant spar urethane. 4 thick coats since it’ll spend a lot of time being soaked and in the sun. I’m very happy with how the wood grain POPPED after torching.

It came out pretty cool. The kids love it! This was my first wood working project.

Edit: I forgot to mention that I left the “backsplash” portion open for hooks to be able to hang pots, pans, utensils…etc.
