Big oak kitchen storage cupboard

Postby Bungle » 07 Aug 2014, 20:07

A job just finished .

Start with 50m2 of quartered European oak from capital crispin.

Image

Joint it into large layons approx size 2.3 x 5m

Image

Construction is MFMDF carcases

Image

The sliding door in the above picture will slide into a pocket created by the carcases when finished.

Jump forward a bit about 50 samples of the white washed oak and lots of veneering later and it's finished .

Image
Image
Image
Image

The doors have a 30 degree angle cut onto the edge to allow the doors to open against the white lacquered frames.

Image

It's been a nice project and a nice challenge getting the detailing right from the architects blueprints. Biggest challenge was getting the grain flowing through from side to side and managing to veneer everything the right way up etc as one mistake would have ruined the whole front. There is also a nice forum connection as a friend who I have made through the forums recommended me to his friends for the job.

Thanks for looking

Cheers

Jon

That hits the nail on the head. Stunning work but not for me.

Excellent but certainly one to divide opinion. I imagine they are all push to open catches which has always left me wondering about finger marks after several years of use
I do not think therefore I do not am.

Looking at the photos, it looks like a very modern, minimalist house and a design like that goes very well with that concept?

No push to open catches the white squares act as the handles as the edges of the doors are angled back at 30 degrees on the edges to allow you to open the doors.

Definitely one to divide opinion and has been designed by an architect to fit into the extension so all I did was manufacture it I really like the finished result though.

I decided to remove them. Having your posts edited without notice or being told why I find rude. So I have decided to remove my content.
