Shop Work...Progress on Bases

J










Just a quick photo for one of our clients to see
progress on a small section of cabinet bases
for his mancave....

Here we used a mortise and tenoned maple
1 and 3/4 face frame, glued and brad nailed
with corner braces for added rigidity and
to take countertop weight. Once
sprayed and clear coated, a nice result
will be obtained. We also custom-built
a spray rack for the large single pieces
of bar top which were hot sprayed with
a custom high gloss finish over a
provincial non-grain raising stain.
The hot spray (product warmed to 120F)
enables successive coats to "melt" into
each other, reducing dry spray and creating
a super-smooth final finish that beads water
and resists marring.

Now that winter is here, we have a little more
time to work on in-shop projects for clients.
Some of our cabinet base work is remarkably
inexpensive, the ones above are $400.00
each, custom sized and installed and includes
shop time finishing. All cabinet bases are solid
stock maple (NO PARTICLE BOARD like
Kraft Maid or Schuler).
