Walnut Project Finished

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

I was recently contacted about building a Walnut  vanity and a Walnut Shelf to fit over a range hood. 

 

So so I was sent these two pictures and ask if I could do these.

So I got started by gluing up several boards to make the vanity 24" deep and 41 3/4" wide. The boards are 1 1/4" thick and a piece is glued on the front to give it the appearance of being 2 1/2".

Awesome John! The project overall is a great design, love that style of minimalism, and your work is the center piece, as it should be!

Awesome Job there, "Hannibal"

 

Great Looking work and happy to hear the customer is happy. That will probably get you some work from some of their friends.:D

Awesome.  It's really nice to see that there are still clients who appreciate ($) custom items.  It sure makes a stunning presentation.

Care-to-share Dept:  how'd you hang the shelf?

NIce.   A few years ago, one of my customers sold a dresser to a client for use as a vanity with a free-standing sink.   You can guess the result -- the finish got ruined in short order.   I think I ended up removing most of the damaged finish and applying a few coats of Waterlox.

The shelf has a brace board behind the hood and a 5" 5/15" lag bolt pre-drilled. 

Really nice John.  Great work.

nice work, John.

Thanks all for the kind and gracious comments. The work was minimal in nature but the Walnut took center stage and that is what I like to do. Let the wood show off.
