They are laying on top of each other.....and the top board is even worse...

Compound curves?    May just take these two back to Menard's....either a refund, or two replacements....IF they have any good ones in stock...

Heading to the shop in a bit....clamps are due to come off....I might want to stand there and catch them...

Not really...may just let it age normally..

I brought this up for others to see why we sometimes do, or do not put a finish on something inside or out.  As you said let it age normally and it will take on a patina all of it's own.  Much like unfinished drawers do in furniture.  Personal preference, not a right or wrong way to go about it.

 

 

As for lights, maybe some LED strip lights.  They work of a 12 volt transformer, no heat at the lights themselves and wiring is small and easy to do.  Probably easier to do in my shop as I have several 12 volt power supplies for equipment lights and some under cabinet lights.  But using a wall wart for as little as you would turn it on would work well.  

 

Or you could go low tech and use a HF approach.
