Default Corner Cab - work in progress

Looks great!. How are you planning to mount the glass in the doors?


The usual dado'ed face frame ... they're pretty small, glass will be roughly
7 7/8 x 28.

Still haven't decided upon muntins, or no. Made the wood panel doors
yesterday, and will probably start cogitating/consulting on the glass ones
today.

But ... after Saturday, there are now further, humbling, complications ...
dammit!

Spent the afternoon at an 'open house' in the beautiful home one of Leon's
woodworking clients, a house that turns out to be a veritable museum for his
work, one or two pieces in _every_ room, including the bath.

Man, there is some gorgeous work there and plenty of it, including two
corner cabinets, count'em TWO, that make me think I should just start over.

To say that Leon's furniture work is impressive is the mother of
understatements ... makes you want to go serve an apprenticeship somewhere
and learn how to really do this stuff. Upshot is that I've now going to be
asking myself, "Hmmm ... what would Leon do here?" for the next decade or
two.

Folks, you don't really appreciate the amount of woodworking, and design,
talent on the wRec until you've seen some of it in person!
