Transcript
I'm gonna try something a little different today. My name is Best, and I'm gonna build my house. Let's do it. Well, I better the glue set up on the top a little bit. I'm gonna start working on the drawers. So I'm gonna have two drawers right here, and then this will just be open. I'm gonna put a piece of that black melamine in the back tier, kinda as a false back because the plumbing won't be in here for the rank, and then, yeah, that melamine will just cover it.
