    Amazing work man, thats awesome.

    So is it just the way the picture looks or are your lower drawers at an increased angle, while the upper drawers are flat? If thats the case thats good thinking.

    I think the funny thing is his dog is in the cage in the first pic *humi closed*
    Then his dog is gone in the second pic *humi open*

  • fuentejpsfuentejps Posts: 345 ✭
    yup, increased angle., i have holes w/ brass tabs that pull out all the way up each side so i can play with the angles.

    Thats F'ing cool man, and even better that you can mess with the angles. REally a nice feature. You said you and your father in law built this thing yourselves? i'm impressed man well done.

    Not to be a downer or anything, because this is just an awesome project, but i see a lot of unused space in there... Maybe you could do something about that?

    You have really inspired me...

    My fiance and I just moved into a new home with tons of unfinished basement space. She already agreed to let me dedicate a chunk of the space to a man cave. Since I'll have to frame in new walls from scratch, it shouldn't be too much trouble to just plan for an in-wall cabinet like yours.

    Coincidentally, it's also my father-in-law who is the one with the construction/wood-working know-how, so it looks like I'll be enlisting his help!
  • fuentejpsfuentejps Posts: 345 ✭
    its a great project. and there are only a few in walls that you can buy online. i found one. so youll be making a 1 -off which is way cool. pay special attentioon to the door. mine has no seal, per say, my fil made it w/ 3 step type mill work. that wasnt easy to get it perfect. my humidity is incredibly tight. you can go as big as you want. i chose that size for 2 reasons. 1. in that closet i couldnt go any higher. 2. i wanted to be able access all shelves easily. bacojay, the possibilities are endless. took me a year to stock it incurrent config. now we'll do deeper shelves, then who knows.

    How deep is that humi? Actually, what dimensions is that humi? I have a lot of barren wall space and was kicking aroudn the idea of doing something like that. Any advice for someone looking to start makring their own?
  • fuentejpsfuentejps Posts: 345 ✭
    ITS 2FT WIDE X 12IN DEEP AND 4FT TALL. ADVICE? track down all your spanish cedar first its not cheap. be sure your door mill work is perfect and "stepped".
