Very nice! Did you vapor the veneer?

zei · 11th November 2005, 09:46 AM

I had to soak it i water.. Filled up my bathtub and let it soak in for 20 minutes or so.. and it worked

The veneer is jakaranda 0,4 mm thick so it is veeeery fragile..

Oh yeah, and then glued on I guess? How did you fix it? Looks really great.

yepp. just glued it on.. i just "rolled" the cabinet on the veneer and put pressure with my bodyweight.. Rolled it back and forth..

No problem, worked lika charm..

the glue i used is called .. mm.. don,t know the eglish word. Contact glue ? well.. i put the glue on,, waited for 10 minutes or so and then just pressed it on.. i keap pressing for about 30 minutes ( rolling it )

Sry for the poor explanation..

hello zei , how you have calculated the box volume??

zei · 13th November 2005, 08:13 PM

Hi.

To get the correct volume with curved walls AutoCad was used.

Actualy i did not do it myself but a friend did it for me.. it took him about 2 minutes. With the right software and friends it is very easy.
