Hello there everyone finally get to post some pics. I received this commission from a concrete plant that just recently went in and before I got my shop completed. There are 2 rooms with this being the biggest the other room only has 6 file cabinets and 2 end cabinets so they should not take as long. I have been almost 4 months on this set, but I do this part time for now. Hope you enjoy the pics. Any and all comments are welcome. Thanks for looking.

great job! this large projects are really what define woodworkers and in a way are like a coming of age, from here all you can do is really get smaller and your work will improve alot as you have the experience with the larger projects. it may sound a bit weird but i know that after i was finished my first big project when i went back to smaller ones i greatly improved in almost everything. thanks for the post and great job on this commission.

Very nice cabinets. I never thought of building file drawers into kitchen-height base cabinets. Great idea!

Charlie what really made this build and instalation a little difficult was they already had the counter top installed with a make shift frame and braces. I don’t know if the photo shows it or not but this is a working plant and all there equipment was on the tops and could not be removed. so I had to build to that height, and on the installation I would cut away part of there frame work then slide the cabinets under the top. Took about 6 hours to install.

Thanks for the post.
