A few recent projects.

[pren]

Evenin' all.

Figured it was time to show a few of my recent projects instead of spending my time snaffling other people's ideas :lol:

First up: A bookcase for my boss' nursery. The brief was to make something that would match this pre-bought nursery set.

This is what I came up with:

Note: the pictures were taken in the office at work - not in some disturbing, office-themed nursery :lol: The sides are from 18 and 6mm MDF and the top and shelved are from 18mm PSE redwood. Paint is Dulux Vanillamist 1 satinwood, stain is Antique pine gloss varnish.


Next: A house nameplate. Made from timber reclaimed from a pallet at work. The letters are Iroko (I think) and the backing is Oak (more guessing, I'm afraid ..).

Also made this house number plate (not sure i'f I've already shown this..)
Made from the same wood as the nameplate.

Finally, I've just completed this changing table for my sister-in-law (probably with about a week to spare ). It's the first time I've used M+T joints in anger. Turned out rather well, I think. \/

That's all for now! Got a kitchen to finish in the meantime.

Cheers.

Excellent work,particularly like the chamfer detail on the mortice and tenon joints on the changing table ; it just adds nicely to the overall look to make it that little bit special

Thankyou all very much

Just delivered the changing table to my sister-in-law. Both her and her husband were delighted with it. (phew).

Cheers.

hey pren, you got any plans you could email me, I fancy having a go at that shelf unit you posted on here?

 

[pren]

Wow? Really? I'm flattered that you'd want to copy something I made (admittedly based on someone else's design)! :lol:

I dont have any plans as such (other than the usual beer-mat/old envelope scribblings) but I do still have the Google SketchUp file I could tweak and send you if that's any use?

Cheers.
