More likely is that the object is distorted in the photo because the top is
closer to the camera than the bottom; that makes the sides *look* tapered.


Yeah, it was I who took the photo. I've several others, but that's the
best one


In that case, did you open the doors and see how they hinged?

Funky stuff like that is popular with scifi shows. One thing I
commonly see is that the doors pivot on a vertical axis that is
inset from the "hinge" side of the door. So the bulk of the door
comes out while a narrow strip along the side goes into the cabinet.

No clue how you build that. I'm still trying to figure out why the
garage hasn't built anything with all of the tools that I bought
and put out there. (Spring, and fewer excuses, will soon be here.)
