What a great combination of pre-fab and handmade, premium beech and basic pine and chipboard that looks sensational. One of your most professional efforts and something you could proudly add to a portfolio of work for clients to look at and go - Yep, I want that. Awesome stuff Robin.

Nice job. 10 years from now you’ll love the fact you chosed polyuretane for floors. It will last for fantastic more wear and tear than furniture poly. And I guess you will prep for some bbq:s on that island aswell host some young ones with needle sharp forks on the table. May I suggest that you reinforce the cabinet flooring on top of the wheels? Easiest way is to just ad a 4 or 6 mm ply on top of the floor and glue it down with some PL 400 or anything equal. Or any other glue. The flooring is pretty strong when the cabinet stands still. But will take a great deal of beating when you move it around. Put all the things that’s supposed to be in the drawers on a scale. When you see the weight, you’ll understand.
@grandmaraps4 жыл бұрын
Absolutely fantastic idea. Just putting the paint on my removable island. I much prefer a dining table but settle on an island because I needed the extra storage. (Small house.) I might have to figure out how to put a table over my island or dish my idea and start all over. ☹️ Again, you did a fabulous job.
