In June, I took on an even bigger challenge: a tall plywood storage cabinet that looked like it was pieced together from many planks of varying sizes. That day, the living room became my mini-workshop.
Compared to the kitchen cabinet, this felt like the final battle. I spread the parts aross the floor, meticulously measuring and aligning each plank before fastening them with screws and a few solid taps of the hammer.
By then, I had already assembled quite a few things around the house, like shoe racks, cabinets, lamps, plants rack, etc. and my love for building and assembling was growing stronger (thanks to LEGO, I got early exposure to this skill 😄).
Piece by piece, the cabinet slowly took shape, a mix of patience, precision, and determination that made the final result even more rewarding. After hours of careful work and plenty of sweat, it finally stood firm and steady, ready to hold boxes and supplies. Seeing it perfectly assembled and solid in place, I felt it proved that with hard work, focus, and a bit of curiosity, you can truly build something lasting.
