May 12, 20179 yr Popular Post comment_109240 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". finish was applied this week and it was picked up today to install. The Shelf is 1 1/2" thick 7" deep and 32" wide. It to was picked up today and installed. So i can now mark this one off the list and move on to the next one in waiting. I love it it when a plan come together. Report

May 12, 20179 yr comment_109285 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? Report
May 12, 20179 yr comment_109300 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. Report

May 12, 20179 yr comment_109343 Beautiful, John! That walnut is the perfect material for those spaces. Report
May 15, 20179 yr Author comment_109537 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. Report
