This was a fun creative piece of work I did this past summer. Hope it is interesting:

Just thought I better provide a link to the published article about this (to give credit to FHB). This is on newsstands now, in another magazine. It might be useful here, but if the OHJ would rather not have material featured elsewhere (Fine Homebuilding) in this forum... I understand that and this thread could be deleted.

Very nice job.
Thank you Charles. The article is a brief "how-to" piece, should someone like to replicate this.

All the best,

Basswood

Very clever. I have been looking at old buffet cabinets with the same idea, but did not want to cut them up to the point of destroying their utility as well as their beauty. This preserves both. Good work!
The "U" shaped drawer is a novel idea, you still have some storage in the drawer Great

This is beautiful!  I would love to do something like this in my upstairs bath however, when the tub, toilet, and sink were plumbed in, everything is pretty well jammed into the same area, which I will probably work around to avoid major re-plumbing issues.

 

I love the way you've rebuilt the buffet without losing total use of the drawer.  And, accented with matching china.  Voila!  :)
