• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

A job just finished .

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

Joint it into large layons approx size 2.3 x 5m

Construction is MFMDF carcases

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 .

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

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

I really appreciate the workmanship that went into producing this piece............and I really, really loath the design.

That hits the nail on the head.[emoji375] 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
 
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.
