Curio cabinet in the Mission style
-
Ethan Allen used to offer this when they had a line of American Classics or whatever they called it about a dozen years ago. I looked at one in a showroom and then saw its overall L x W x H in the catalog, then went home and modeled it in 3D using, of all things, a package by Intergraph called Solid Edge.
I actually blanked out the parts but never went beyond that in my shop. So I have measured my parts and done the thing in SU. Here is a pic.
With no further work on the model, hey, I know it could be better, with joinery, etc., but what the heck, I just put it up on the Warehouse. Mission Curio Cabinet. Enjoy.
I already have the hardware and electricals for it, so I'll stick with the Amerock PK 7687M DAE hinges I have, plus the two 2-1/8" 10W halogen low voltage puck lights I have for the inside lighting. I want to try the switch, the kind that you run a lead wire to a hinge, so that all you do is touch the hinge to turn on the light, turn it off, and dim up or dim down.

Thanks for the model!... working on it. Needs hardware, shelves.
Would be nice to see your finished project!
