Furniture Lab Tech Cabinet Grand Finale
Learn About the Entire Tech Cabinet BuildWhat is Furniture Lab?Recycling Found Objects into Fine FurnitureTech Cabinet: Part 1Tech Cabinet: Part 2
This project didnt come to be without its fair share of problem situations that required smart solutions. Trying to cut precise joinery with wood that has largely been left untouched (ie: un-milled) can be quite difficult, to say the least, but all the trial-and-error, finagling, and head-scratching were worth it. The contrasts that abound on this piece make it what it is, and I think its fair to say that there arent too many cabinets quite like it.
See my gallery of photos for a detailed description on the construction process. And dont forget to check back for more Furniture Lab projects from other Fine Woodworking staffers. Who knows, I might throw myself back in the mix too--sooner than you think!
Watch the Furniture Lab Junkyard Visit
Be sure to read Asa Christianas story outlining the original idea and intent of Furniture Lab, plus, watch our original Furniture Lab junkyard visit. John Tetreault, Tom McKenna, and Anatole Burkin visited an old salvage yard for some quirky design inspiration.
Inspired by the steampunk and recylced furniture movements, Furniture Lab allows the editors of Fine Woodworking magazine and FineWoodworking.com to really let their hair down.
Here, youll find us cooking up all manner of design experiments. We aim to incorporate salvaged and recylced items into our furniture and will be veering way off the traditional path of Fine Woodworking.
