hers a nice little houduras mohogany corner cabinet i did for a customer on clearwater beach . ive never been a big fan of corner cabinets but this one fit in pretty well in the setting .i left a space for the chair rail to to continue around the cabinet . i also had a custom cut crown mldg. and baseboard that i didnt bother to take a picture of . i was pretty disgusted when i showed up to start the job and found the h.o. had put such a dark stain over this mohogany that you can hardly see the grain !

Nice post and nice cabinet.
Did you do the lighting on this too?
What do you use for finishing, lacquer?

nice job. i like the way you lined up the chair molding with the break in the cabinet.
was it all from plywood or solid stock?

Nice. Ya I did a large Cherry kitchen a while back and had to stain it all dark. They really just wanted a walnut kitchen…I don’t do the sales just follow instructions, and smile.

I like your last comment here. : ) I’m not a big fan of dark wood either, but it did turn out very nice. Some stains just don’t go well with some woods.

Like a few guys told me on a project I had on LJs ,we may not like the design ,stain, or details but it’s all about what the customer whats and pays for. It’s the cost of being in business instead of doing what we want as hobby.
