kitchen bench complete (no finish)

Well, Here is the completed bench. This is too pieces that will be bolted together so it will be easier to move around.





I turned out to be a little trickier than I though it was going to be. The angles on the corner when you throw the pitch of the back of the bench makes it pretty tricky. It takes three cuts to get the proper pitch.



Here is a shot of the beadboard back. I did not like anything I could find commercialy so I made this with a molding head for the tablesaw.

I will post somemore photos when I get the finish complete, It is gong to be country black, antiqued. There is also a table that goes with it, but i have to decide on what I want to do.

Here is a shot of me working on the back panels, got my tunes on and I am ready to go :)

Here is the completed project. I thought I would take a pretty picture and then go cut some beef, "It's what's for dinner"

Completed the case

Not much to look at, remember this is not my design, it is being built for a client. For what it is I guess I am pleased, it is square and the joints look good. Tomorrow.

Tomorrow I will make the doors and the top. This piece is to match some old furniture the client has in their bedroom. The tin in the old one is from a roof. They provided me with a close match, now I just need to make it look antiqued. I figure a base of blue paint followed by white before the blue is completely dry, wipe it all down and see what it looks like.

This project reminds me how much I hate working in Pine..... None the less one more project 100 things learned....
