Let me know when you’re finished setting up. Maybe we can grab a quick beer after.

Thanks Huff, Spare Time…I build cabinets… what else? LOL
Hey Brian, I would love to catch a cold beer with you, but this job is getting loaded on a truck and I’m saying, bye bye…The contractor I’m doing it for is responsible for getting it there.
Bently,
You do great work under pressure. Now get back to playing . . . with the murphy bed!

Thanks L/W, I do my best work under pressure.
For some reason I’m always working under pressure. probably because I wait until the last minute to start things. LOL
I also thought I would share the lighting I used. It’s very simple.
It’s the Loox system from Hafele’
Everything just plugs right in. I used the 12v system, but you can use the 24v system just as easy.
This is the light that I used.

Here is a pic of them all hooked up on the cases. (10 lights per case)

Looks great.

That’s a lot of spraying…
I missed all the action.

Painted my butt off… Butt…. you didn’t miss much.
The VP sent me some pics from the show.
Looks like they should have designed them to be taller, I don’t like how the models heads stick up above them.






Now do you want to hear the funny part? They used the cabinets for a 3 hour long show. Now the contractor and one of my buddies are flying back to NY to put them on a truck to drive them back for a show here in Vegas….LOL
Their home office is in CA (Huntington Beach I think)
OK, OK really, I’m getting to the Murphy Bed. I am, I ammmmm
Some pretty girls… I mean some very nice cabinets :)
seriously the setup looks great!

Another fine job by the awesome Bentlyj!
Did you spray the interiors too or melamine?
Involve your kids and grandkids. They'll love you for it!
Hi Gary, Thanks
Nature of the job, ($$, time frame), I decided to use melamine.
Hope all is well with you. Your probably building high rises by now?
Should have called this topic anything but the Murphy Bed.
Little jobs keep pushing it back.
Re modeled this entertainment unit.

took out the big tv adapted it for a flat screen and changed the doors to speaker grills. All done as per Sound guy’s specs.

Now working on a media cabinet with rounded corners. Here are some progress pics. The piece with all the clamps is the base for the unit. It will be painted black lacquer, flat doors all flush.


Made a desk base (metal Laminate)and Powder Bath (Engineered Macasar Ebony)for the same client that wants the Murphy bed. These are the only pics I have of them right now.
