    What I did on my summer vacation

    A friend at work asked me to build two large cabinets to take the place of closets, of which their house is a tad lacking. I decided to document the build and share the work via pictures. The two cabinets are identical, with sapele frames, sapele plywood boxes, veneered birdseye maple panels...

    Laying out the cuts

    In order to fabricate some elbows out of 20" ducting, Doug and I put our heads together and figured out how to use a couple of lasers to lay out the cut lines. The cut angles were laid out on the floor, and the pipe and lasers aligned to them.

    Blower flange

    This is a flange that I made and welded up to the blower inlet. Since the blower inlet is cast iron, the welding involved a lot of pre-heating, short beads, and then stress relieving.

    This is the closest that I could come to closing off the discharge on the blower while it was running!
