Curved Island Unit

[pablo823]

This is curved barrel shaped unit I made as part of a kitchen a couple of years ago . It was something I hadn't done before
so I quite liked the challenge. I've shown it before on uk woodwork but I thought as I've only just joined this forum
there might be a few people on here who might like to see how it was done including the completed kitchen. Thanks
for looking

Glad you like, It took 2 1/2 weeks for the curved unit and I think it was 7 for the rest
