Radiator Covers

A friend of mine asked me to build him some radiator covers that matched some of his existing furniture in the basement.  The left one was in a tight space due to a storage unit, but fortunately the other one had more room.  

 


The walnut and brass mesh combo turned out well, and the left cover fit perfectly.  The doors
are soft close, of course, and reflective insulation will be installed to direct the heat forward.  Below are the radiators.

Espresso Stained TV Stand - Commission

My father-in-law and his wife wanted a custom TV stand, so we came up with the following design.



The doors are inset, so flush with the outside edges.  I used red oak, which has such a deep grain, it takes a dark espresso stain very well.

First Commissioned Work - Built-in shelving

A colleague of mine wanted me to replace a banister and railing with a shelving unit.  


So, I designed a built-in shelving unit that is open on opposite sides.   The side away from the kitchen has only 1 opening and doors with a patterned aluminum insert.  


I ended up enclosing the column, because he didn't like the fluted column anyway.
