The top, front and sides are all sanded down. I set in some shelves and have primed them with a tinted primer. After the primer dried, I sanded lightly and used the shop vac to remove dust.
Below is another project! We forgot to take a "before" picture. It was damaged on top - the "slats" were loose and I have glued it to repair the damage. Here--sanded (but not dusted off).
