Those look great, I like the stepped frame look. Thanks ... getting the 'frame-within-a-frame' design element on those last two cabinets was very important to the client. Both sets of cabinets had some out of the ordinary spec's ... not fancy, just made it more fun than a carcase and a face frame. -- www.eWoodShop.com Last update: 4/15/2010 KarlCaillouet@ (the obvious) http://gplus.to/eWoodShop |

https://picasaweb.google.com/1113554...86556991341 0 Hey, Swing. Are you going to use the glass shelves direct in the wooden housings, then affix the mirror door to them, too? I thought these were boxes to hold the entire Kohler cabs. P.S: Do you know what finish the end user will use (probably smear) on it? -- Creativity can solve almost any problem.

Are you going to use the glass shelves direct in the wooden housings, then affix the mirror door to them, too? I thought these were boxes to hold the entire Kohler cabs. Run back through the photos and you will see there are four cabinets, with two separate styles: Two flush mount medicine cabinets for over the sinks in two bathrooms. Two glass shelf cabinets going over the commodes in the two bathrooms. P.S: Do you know what finish the end user will use (probably smear) on it? Yep, it appears so ... after physically seeing a prototype chair I built with poplar using General Finishes "Java" Gel Stain, it will be most likely be literally smeared thusly. The poplar prototype chair, with some pretty bodacious poplar popsicle colors in it (lime green, I'm told), turned out not all that bad, and you can see the grain: https://picasaweb.google.com/1113554...42 5704906610 Turns out it is exactly the effect this particular client was looking for, but didn't know how to achieve ...

Run back through the photos and you will see there are four cabinets, with two separate styles: Two flush mount medicine cabinets for over the sinks in two bathrooms. Two glass shelf cabinets going over the commodes in the two bathrooms. So there are! Cool. P.S: Do you know what finish the end user will use (probably smear) on it?

You rinse its mouth out with any solvent which will take that butt fugly color off it, too. But ya got a point.
