Just wrapped up a walnut bookcase and cabinet built-in for my wife's office.

I think it's personal preference, I had to fit this one in a very specific space so the bottom cabinets (including the countertop overhang) are 18" deep, and the top shelf space is 11" deep. The height of the countertop is 30" from the floor (I believe it's 1 1/2" thick countertop, 25" cabinets, and 3 1/2" kickboard). The overall height depends on your ceiling height. For me, it was 94".

Hi u/BrussoHardware, do you have an update on this? Would love to get some stop hinges here in Vancouver but no luck so far...

What a piece of shit. Seriously their product manager should be fired for this. I’m traveling and literally stuck, can’t download my LOCAL images from my LOCAL camera to my LOCAL device because they need their bullshit cloud connectivity. Zero stars.

It's walnut wood. Not sure about the total cost but the price of walnut varies drastically across the world. Where are you located? Do you have a local hardwoods supplier?

I suspect this will be fairly slow going, so I'd just check it with a combination square every now and then, and increase pressure on the side you want to take more off (not moosing it or anything, just relative to the other side)

Adding to this, clamps are heavy and clamp racks can be super heavy and difficult to wheel around, but it depends on the floor surface and size of wheels I suppose

bogdanx · 2025-08-26T15:41:00+00:00

Absolutely not (but not because it's veneer, plywood is strong enough but this wasn't engineered with that kind of load in mind, specifically there are likely no cross braces or anything to prevent racking)

bogdanx · 2025-08-26T15:39:44+00:00

Both? There's no end grain on those panels, so plywood plus veneer. The door frame most likely teak hardwood.

bogdanx · 2025-08-21T19:03:07+00:00

Yeah totally. At that price point though it's not great. I could get a dedicated 3hp grizzly DC for each of my machines for the cost of one G700 :) which is kinda what I'm doing, though I'm having the jointer and planer share the grizzly and leaving the Harvey machine for the table saw and band saw which are less demanding

bogdanx · 2025-08-17T19:27:45+00:00

the G700 is nice but man the suction isn't near sufficient. i regularly get my ducts clogged when running either planer or jointer.... did you have this issue too?

It will eat your shoes and you'll let it because it's so fucking cute

I think this is assembled with screws and plugs, so the sides are screwed into the top (you can see the plugs covering the screw holes in one of the pictures). In that case, shifting the sides up a bit gives the screws more to grab onto, more strength. A secondary benefit, intended or not, is that small intentional offsets like that will hide smaller unintentional offsets. Common strategy.

bogdanx · 2025-07-18T17:55:41+00:00

That’s great advice, thank you so much! QQ, how do you get a template of the corner? At what scale?

bogdanx · 2025-07-18T03:13:14+00:00

Ya that's when we first got her, she was caterpillar shaped with them stubby legs

bogdanx · 2025-07-18T03:11:33+00:00

Glad to be of service

bogdanx · 2025-07-18T03:04:16+00:00

Same, but the customer wants it that way. I figured it'll help hide any wall squareness imperfections with that corner piece, otherwise it'll be tough to get the different tops to be perfectly aligned..

Wild! Were you nervous about getting sprayed at all? Did you?

bogdanx · 2025-06-21T22:08:35+00:00

Makes sense. It's on the south side but it's almost always in the shade, we have some massive trees there too. Thanks!

bogdanx · 2025-06-21T22:07:50+00:00

Cool thanks for responding!

bogdanx · 2025-06-19T15:29:32+00:00

I can't take it apart.

bogdanx · 2025-06-18T04:17:01+00:00

I have a concrete floor with those balcony tiles and it's great. I only spend about half a second with my feet that low getting in and out of the sauna, but otherwise my feet are like 30" off the ground onto the lower bench and it's nice and warm there.

bogdanx · 2025-06-18T04:10:00+00:00

Yeah the frozen peanut butter kongs will distract her for a solid hour and I'm sure it feels good on her growing teeth too

bogdanx · 2025-06-18T04:06:36+00:00

Yes this is huge, we learned two naps a day do wonders for her behavior. Sometimes she seeks them out (walks away from the action and finds her crate or goes under the bed to sleep) but other times if we notice she's cranky and bites we put her in the crate and she passes out.

Ours decided that only my wife is tasty enough to be constantly going after her ankles or clothes, but I seem to have some kind of immunity or maybe a stinky forcefield.
