Hanging cupboard
A good friend of mine ask if i could make her a cupboard for her books. She already found a design that she liked online but it was only available for one corner. And she wanted two cupboards on each side of the room.
Since the picture doesn't tell how the cupboard is mounted on the wall i had to improvise.
First i got the material from the hardware store.
Some wood planks, some steel pipes and some interlocking brackets.
I cut the wood to the correct size and drilled some holes in the right places. Also i made some grooves for the interlocking brackets at the back of some boards.
Then i cut the steel pipes to the right length and soldered some square nuts in each end. (next time i do something like that i will buy a aluminum pipe and drill a hole in each end. that would be much easier)
The pipes where painted with a mat grey spray paint.
After i assembled all, i glued and screwed everything in place.
Lastly i oiled it with some teak oil.
Her boyfriend installed the hanging cupboards in their apartment.
I had to come to repair them because the weight of the books loose some boards. But i could fix it with some screws.
Overall a cool build
