Not familiar with 3-d cabs.(I'm old) But, I think it looks nice and well executed.

very very nice. Is all that routed by hand? looks like CNC it's so neat.


I like the idea of these cabs.

Hi,
Sorry for late response,Yes all that is routed by the hand. My real job is medicine... so with wood and router in my garage i can realy hang off .... no people, no ringing machines, only cold bear and dog - Chihuahua on carpet. I'm impressed also about how cabinet sounded . :D
