Desk Library Progresss
My filing cabinet/book shelves are almost complete.
I have finished installing the 5 pieces and have anchored all 5 pieces to the wall. I also used the hex head washer head nuts and bolts, intended for the purpose of decoratively fastening cabinets together, to affix the center over head bridge cabinet to the outer tower book cases as a redundant method of securing the center cabinet. The center cabinet also has ears, which are on top and out of sight, which it hangs on. It hung in place for a couple of days before I added any anchoring screws. I still need to build the shelves for the towers and attach a valance at the top. And possibly illuminate the front of the 3 book case cabinets, from a hidden slot in the valance, with ribbon LED lighting. https://www.flickr.com/photos/lcb112...posted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/lcb112...posted-public/ One side of the structure before adding the center bridge cabinet. https://www.flickr.com/photos/lcb112...posted-public/ And finally the appearance of the office from the entry way. You will not actually see the book cases/file cabinets until you enter the room and turn around to exit. https://www.flickr.com/photos/lcb112...posted-public/ I still have not ruled out the rolling ladder. BUT I need to see how this all works out in the interim. Anyway I have 3 customers waiting so that should make the decision of the $1K ladder easier to swallow. For certain a rolling ladder should make it easier to relocate when I need to get into the file cabinets. Thoughts? |
