#1 2.8mm Panel gaps

Post by Jeremy » Tue Feb 02, 2021 6:10 pm

Panel gaps to a tenth of a mm, a doddle... The Jag sits behind me, gathering a gentle sprinkling of dust, while I make a 4 drawer cabinet from finest ash stained black, with dovetailed drawers (maple). Super smooth damped drawer runners. Maple handles with inlaid black strip. Currently tuning the depth, then will fix the false fronts on. A lot easier than fitting an E type bonnet :thumbsup:

Stunning and I wondered why you’d been quiet recently!

Are you taking orders, Jeremy? Are there other colours available besides Henry Ford black?
BRG? ODB?

Very nice indeed :salute:

Geoff, I just have to say: I take my hat off to people who can actually make a living doing this kind of stuff, cos I sure couldn't.... Takes me far too long....
