Very well done. More ideas for me to toss around. I have been considering combination tool rack and sharpening station for a long time. Having grinder high up so you can see is an excellent idea. I'd heard it before, but never put it together that it could and should be done on a cabinet.
I like that you took the time to put a finish on it, should help keep it cleaner. Working on that next.

Anyway just a couple of thoughts.
