On the job with Silverd510....

Afternoon my friends....

It has been a long time since I’ve showed off some of my work. So for your viewing pleasure here is a job that I am currently installing.

I am writing this post from the job site, the granite is being installed by the contractor as I type so I’m at a standstill.

Quick overview of the job:
The homeowners had an addition put onto the end of their house. It a one room addition with a fifteen foot ceiling with remote control skylights. The room is just over 1600 square feet and has a double French door leading to the pool area. The homeowner is an owner of race horses. High end race horses from what I was told by the general contractor doing the addition.

My scope of work:
I was contracted to build a solid cherry full functioning wet bar. A liquor storage hutch and a trophy case for them. And this is what I came up with.....

This is the bar currently, the fluted radius molding that you see on the front of the bar is getting hand blow glass tile inset inside with a wrap around LED light insert.

This is a picture from behind the bar. By the sink side is an under the counter ice maker and stem glass chiller. To the left is a dual storage vineotemp which controls both wine and champagne.

This is the trophy case with a side cabinet. The side cabinet is for a trophy that he has from a huge derby one of his horses won in Australia a few years back. The trophy is nearly four feet tall.

Hope you enjoyed.....

Thanks brother. Just the base of the liquor cabinet has doors and the cabinet to the left on the trophy display. They wanted them open.

Very cool!

Really awesome man. I can only imagine what the rest of this guys house looks like. Do you fabricate these in pieces in your shop then assemble them in the house or are they each a finished piece that gets moved in whole?
Also gonna try this new tipu curation vote thingy... @tipu curate

Thanks bro. I build everything in the shop and attach them together on site. I couldnt finish on a job my set is way to crazy to travel. Tge bar is 3 base cabinets, the front is 3/4" furniture grafe cherry plywood with the solid cherry corbels, and custom arches. I had to cover up what is call a knee wall. Theres plumbing and wires so theres a 34" wall running the entire length you see. If you look on the two behind the bar photos you will see outlet boxes showing.

Let me know what you think about Tipu...
I looked on Discord and I’m not sure If it’s past Bata....

So far it's fine. I don't really like when folks just show up and do a tipu curate without leaving a comment but like you said, it's new and people are just getting used to it. I do think it could be good.

I don't think anymore users can join the moment, I'll keep watching and see how this progresses!😀

Firstly... a huge CONGRATULATIONS 🎊🎈🎉🍾 for hitting 70 reputation, bestie!!!! What an achievement given the difficulty navigating the platform (for me, anyway🥴)
Wow, your work is top notch. I am so very proud of your craft and business, bestie! You are truly an example of the virtue of industrious, always finishing your work to the very last touch and with perfection 💪🏻👌. I admire you!👏
Thanks for once again posting about your work. It has been a while since you wrote about this topic. I enjoyed reading your pist and looking at the photos. It helps me understand the tedious nature of your work and how you put attention to details.
Have a fabulous day, bestie, take care and lots of 🤗❤️😘

It would mean something if this platform wasn't run by morons.
Thank you very much bestie. My motto for over 25 years has been "If I wouldn't put it in my house then it won't go in yours either". If my phone didnt suck and have a busted screen I could do a video of me building. Maybe someday. Its just a days work for me but people seem to be interested.
Tons of love bestie❤🌹💋
