I have just finished this unusual cabinet for a customer (Well it needs the handles fitting still)

Made as usual in MRMDF but it did present a bit of a challenge for me.

Thanks guys. The unit is now finished. Just thought I would post up the shots of it with the handles fitted before it gets collected.

Very nice mailee, Just how do you get the high gloss finish on the mdf? Spray it?

How did you make that then
May we (I) ask how much that costs to buy?

it is made in MRMDF and the corners were 'beefed up' with layers before carving into shape.
I would rather not mention a price on an open forum Billygoat. I will say it is over a three figure sum.

It's beautiful. And having a piece which you know is unique has to be worth a lot.

Well it has been a long time coming but here are some shots of the cabinet in place in the customers home. I am pretty pleased with the outcome.
