Kitchen Cabinet/s

Great looking cabinets roman! Your attention to detail shows your craftmanship well! Hope your finger is doing better.

-- Never board, always knotty, lots of growth rings

Yes that is craftsmanship!

the finger is on the mend, I can now type two handed but even the slighest bump sends the pain threshold through the roof and its some ugly to look at. Having a mind of its own the little pinky never lets me forget I own it, not even for a second. The “Throbbing” is just about gone and has changed to a hottish feeling constant ache!..........

Thanks for the kind words.

Roman, these look good. And thanks for the story behind the cherry cabinet.

I am glad to hear you are on the mend. It will take some time but you are in our thoughts.

Hi Roman,

Here’s hoping the finger heals quickly, I’ve had that “throbbing” feeling on various body parts before and can sympathize :)

And consider this a kick in the arse to get that cabinet to your father LOL

Our family recently had a health scare with my mother and it was a rude reminder to cherish what time we have left with older family members.

Cheers, Don

That’s some great work. Sounds like you’re coming along. Be patient, maybe work on some designs. My best thoughts for you, take care. Jack…......

Thanks every one.

The “finger” is now down to dull roar unless I accidently tap it, then the pain goes through the roof. Gives me a chance to catch up on drawings and finish my front hall and ceiling.

I only have to trim out the island, some sanding…....................and she’s outta here!!!!! Not exactly true. The sink cabinet thats in the island has a cast porcilen undermount that is now pulled forward a tad and the sink (which I am told “Make it work”) was never made to be an undermount which is a bit of &%$#around and the thing wieghs enough that it takes two men to lift, four men and nobody grunts…......and now they want the island which was “Shaker” to have 1/4” offset mouldings around all the panels…....and and and. Not so bad because changes are “extra” but its the “time” which I dont have as others patiently wait for their project to be started….............

Next. Similar in details but done in rift sawn white oak for a desk, built in bookcases,trim, files drawers and a mantle.

Next

A dining table

Next

a really, really, big project that I hope to stretch over 2 years.

Cheers

Thanks Bob#2….....I’ll pass on the catch. I tried playing goalie recently…..........bad move.

I like beading, its a small detail that says a lot. Not loud and yet suttle decadance mind you, mitering the frames with beading as part of the frame, I find very slow going.I saw a tool at the trade show, that cut it quick and easy,punched a hole for a hidden bowtie plud…...in a snap!!!!............but it was about 8 grand and then, like now…............I didnt have 8 grand and I didnt do enough of it to warrent spending that kinda money. Now it seems every project has it so I would love that tool.

A lot of dovetailing in this project too so I broke down and bought another dovetail jig, made by Festool. A review will be coming soon.

I was up at 3:30 am today, working by 4 am and the island just needs a final assembly, then broken down…............done!!!!!!!!. Oh ya, a little sanding yet.

I love the beading too, I see you’re working through the pain. Right on, sign of a real nut case.
