"This is a cabinet on a narrow boat. Made almost entirely on the CNC, so very profitable. The material is light grey Valchromat with a solid oak top. The cabinet tapers from right to left and the back wall slopes also. Therefore, every single part is different from the others. This would have been time consuming to achieve. Everything was cut out on the CNC and location holes for Lamello P system Clamex joints drilled at the same time. Hinge holes and cable access holes were also cut along with recessed covers in Valchromat. Everything was thus able to be flat packed and carried piece by piece up a ladder, where the boat was in dry dock, and assembled on site. Absolute accuracy made this a simple job.
Steven designed the cabinet in cherry to house a hi-fi system. The design included tambour doors and panels to hide the slats recessed into the top and bottom. The photos show the machining of grooves for the tambour slats, panels and back. The top and bottom are mirror images and were both done similarly, and the complex shape finally cut out. All in solid cherry".
