Unveiling of the 4 Rifles Display Cabinet

I recently enjoyed the hospitality of the 4 Rifles.  The evening started with the unveiling of the new display cabinet, followed by their inter company novice boxing competition. It was a black tie event so I had to dig out my dinner jacket.

The cabinet is looking a bit bare at the moment, however I am sure the boxing team will soon be filling it with silverware!

Oak Display Cabinet - Finished....Almost!

For the last month I have been working on this display cabinet in oak.

Well, it is now finished, well almost.......

Just waiting for the glass to arrive.

The carving is of the 4 rifles regiment cap badge and the 4 rifles is where this cabinet is heading.

The Big Glue Up - Part 2

Time to finally glue up the top unit.

That's the all the tricky gluing out of the way for this project.  Next the doors.

Finished & Finishing!

Most of today was spent pre-finishing components for a big glue up tomorrow.

These panels and frame components make up the base unit for an oak display cabinet that I am currently working on.

However, while I was waiting for the oil to dry before the next coat, I did have time to finish assembling a small radiator cover.

I also decided to open a shop at www.etsy.com, some what annoyingly you can't use "?" or "!" in your product titles. Which is a bit of a problem when your branding is "Cool Radiators? It's Covered!"

A Busy Day!

A busy day driving around Kent. Dropped my desk off at the Langton Green Gallery. Then on to a customer to take some picture of newly installed radiator covers.

Stopped by the workshop to apply oil to some oak panels.

Then home to update my shop at folksy with new images. Finally, I decided to start a blog!
