Where to get nice cabinet...screens?
Comments (11)Ooh, pepper07, those are super cool grids - perfect for making your own radiator covers, for instance. That company(Outwater) seems to have a ton of very useful little gadgets for DIY home improvement. Rockler has a number of grille insert designs, not sure if any are what you're looking for -- Here is a link that might be useful: Rockler cabinet door grilles...See MoreChristopher Peacock Back in Business
Comments (7)firsthouse mp - Thanks so much you are so sweet! I did use Christopher Peacock, Victoria Hagen and Kvanum Kok (a Swedish manufacturer with a Peacock feel) all for inspiration. We are so pleased with the result and the kitchen lives so well. The colors are very soothing and restful. I was nervous switching from white to black counters (would it make the room too dark and small?) but it actually made the room look bigger in the end. Here is the link to Kvanum Kok if you haven't seem them before. They are worth a look!...See MoreWhere to get a custom wood hood
Comments (1)I'm looking in two directions for a hood. Either a stone hood from Architectual Designs OR a wood hood from Stanisci. What you may not know is the Stanisci hood comes with a blower a liner. It's a total package. That helped me reconcile myself to the cost. I don't know anything about Christopher Peacock, but I wanted to make sure you knew you would not have to purchase a seperate blower and liner if you went with Stanisci.

Comments (8)There are finishes that can be used in the SCAQMD (south coast air quality district) of Southern California that are as good as or better than Catalyzed Conversion Varnish. UV and 2k poly being two of them. I haven't used CV for many years because yes, this state did put regulations on it that caused the forulations to be altered but that wasn't my reason. This is the nastiest tonic material to be around. Not only working with it but it off-gasses forever so when you have it in your house there are still issues with the toxicity. I started using Italian waterborne 2k poly about seven years ago and never looked back. It's harder to work with, it's more expensive, it's not readily available (I bring it in myself) but it's the best stuff I've found and we use it even in a commercial environment and it holds up really well. UV coating (ultraviolet cured) is used extensively in the flooring industry so even if you intend on walking on your cabinets you would be ok. That finish takes very expensive specialized equipment. I could have it done but don't ever have the need. Sorry to go on but this subject comes up all the time and people who aren't really qualified create the perception that we can't build great cabinets here in California. I've been building high-end custom cabinets for more than twenty five years here in LA so I do have some experience with it. Back to the original questions. "hand finished on site"? With what? Why? Are you going for that look where you see brush strokes in the finish. It's done. I could name a few but it needs to be done well. As far as painted you would never what to paint over cherry that would be a waste of money. Most painted finishes are maple with MDF panel. I do it differently than that but depends on door style and general look you are going for. Espresso stain is done a lot over oak (rifted white oak in particular) but again depends on the look. Re: boxes birch is a little less that pre-finished maple but the big different is domestic vs imported (meaning China)....See Morejejvtr
