I was commissioned for a set of built-ins by a client. After building and priming the cases in my shop, I started installation. Here the lower cases have been set.

After installing the lower column sections, I was able to make up a template for the countertop. I took that template and used it to size the maple countertop blank I had built in the shop. After sanding, staining, and finishing it, it slid into place perfectly on site.

After the countertop was installed, I could begin installation of the upper units.

Here the upper column portions have been fit and installed, and the crown and baseboard trims are complete. A mount for the television has also been installed along with a chase to bring data cables up to the TV from the lower center cabinet.

Hanging the doors and the TV.

The finished product features sawtooth adjustable shelves, beaded face frames, solid maple raised panel inset doors, and hand-made wrought-iron handles.
