Western Red Cedar Outdoor Shoe Cabinet with small Cedar Bench Seat.
This client had two very specific design requirements. It was to blend in with the existing siding and no taller than the Front Door Frame.
The cabinet measures 7ft tall by 22in wide and 14in in depth. The matching clear red cedar bench seat is 17in H by 22in wide by 14in deep.
Both are finished in the same exterior oil/stain as the siding on the house. Inside the cabinet are 8 equally spaced shelves.
The doors are reinforced with 1/2" aluminum 90 degree angle pieces and attached with 6' long piano hinges. I designed the longer handles for use by their two small children.
Todays tongue and groove cedar siding is for some reason slightly larger than the mill of the existing house siding, which made it necesary to custom mill all of the siding used to fabricate this cabinet. Cedar 2 X 2's rabbited for the thickness of the siding formed the corners of the two dides and 1/2in luan plywood for the back piece, floor and ceiling.





Solid Cherry Bar Stools
Tapered legs enhance the sleek lines and function of keeping the stool stable and balanced for motion on/off and seated.
The foot rests are solid 1/2in quarter sawn Cherry with cherry plugs conceiling the joining screws.
Seat area is 14in square with a 45 degree cut on the corners to fix the legs with supports under the seat joining one side to another.
Seat is constructed of three pieces of Solid Cherry milled from the same 10ft. board and joined with splines. Notice the grain match which will keep the color and patina equal throughout the age of the piece.

I have recently re-oiled these solid Cherry Bar stools and have found them after 6 months of use by the client to still be in perfect working order, stable and they have also acheived a wonderfully warm patina. Any one who knows and appreciates the beauty of Cherry wood knows that the value of a piece only iincreases with age due to its inherant qualities of warmth and how it feels to the touch. The owner of these fine peices is extremely satisfied with my efforts.
I have learned over the years "Effort is meaningless without results". Preferably the desired results, which can only be acheived with a desire and intention to produce something of lasting value and beauty.
