This was the first of six projects I made for a co-worker. The shelves were custom fit to dress up an annoying corner in an old home. The base had to be scribed to the floor which sloped almost 2 inches in that short span. This was all made of white oak stained with an English brown oak poly stain. The base was back cut to allow for the relatively tight curves.

Dave,

You did a fine job on a very difficult built-in. Thanks for sharing.

rounding the corners was a great idea in this heavy traffic area.
Nice flow for a difficult area to work with.

At first I thought having a stained back veneer would have been nice but that might make it too dark.
They just need to add a little color to the walls. IMO – White is only for ceilings.

Good job.

Very nice.
This is the kind of job I always get. Something I’ve never done before, that will never be repeated. One off.
I hope you charged enough.
