This is a couple of display cabinets. The uppers will sit on the bases which are stacked one on top of the other on the left. Sorry I didn't have anyone around to help sit them up for a proper photo op.

As usual, Mark. This is just another example of the fine craftsmanship that comes from your shop. It is also another example of some of the unbelievable things that can be done without the new, modern, high tech equipment.

I like the design and that fact that you were able to produce it with your trammel, nice piece of equipment btw. Maybe after I get all my green tools I might bite for one of those....

Will or is there glass for support? Those pieces being as thin as they are must have some sort of support I would think????????

Yes they will have 1/8" tempered glass.

Awesome work, I have some similar looking window sash to fabricate so had a few questions.

Did you cut that out of glued up solid stock ?

Also, when installing the glass are you using 3m tape to keep the mullion flat on the glass, a silicone of some sort, or just clips at the edges?

The grids are made from alder veneer on 1/4" MDF. It is pretty flat so no silicone should be needed. The glass will be held in with wooden strips attached to the back of the door with small countersunk screws.
