Cabinets and Tops for Mobile Home in Orchard Ranch, Dewey AZ

by Steve Shearer | Mar 20, 2024 | Cabinets, Lanae Shaker Cabinets

These two guys, Edward & Jon, are the best customers anyone could find.

While Edward demurred about the possible situations, his partner Jon was busy helping out and keeping me organized. Their mobile home in the Orchard Ranch Resort was always neat & tidy.

It was a tight fit for these white Shaker hardwood cabinets on their refrigerator wall, and I had premonitions of having to cut down a cabinet or two, but it all fit together like a Rubik’s cube.

The white Shaker hardwood cabinets ordered for Edward & Jon: 3DB36, B33-FH, 3DB21, SB33, SPB6, BM24, W3036-WG, W301812, W2136, W2736 x 2, W361824, W2742 x 2. The custom countertop laminate we used was Wilsonart Brazilian Grey premium textured gloss.

White Shaker Cabinets for Aimee’s Casita

Nelson cabinets are so easy to sell. I believe what attracts customers first, is the price, but then I tell them about the quality and it’s a closed deal.

Media Center for Jaclyns

by Steve Shearer | Jun 8, 2021 | Cabinets, Custom Cabinets, Lanae Shaker Cabinets

This covered her entire wall – 15 foot long by 9 foot tall.

We got the lower cabinets from Nelson Cabinets, and I fabricated the shelves and countertop from 3/4″ melamine.

The shelving is something I haven’t done before, to connect the components with some sort of KD fastner. I searched and found furniture cam lock fasteners, got the parts & the jig, and effortlessly pre-fabbed the project. I supplied a couple of photos to show how it’s done.

Cutting the melamine was a big part of the job when you realize that it took 15 minutes to rip an eight foot cut on my tablesaw! Yeah, we’re talking twenty hours or so just to cut it out.

To my amazement, it all went together very well, until I went to place the last end panel. I had machined the countertop wrong and had to make timly corrections. I fixed it as you can see here.

Tim’s Garage Cabinets

by Steve Shearer | Dec 30, 2020 | Cabinets, Custom Cabinets, Lanae Shaker Cabinets

Tim had just bought this new home in Granville, Prescott Valley, and wanted to save some money on garage cabinets.

We ordered the conventional cabinets from Nelson Cabinetry, and I made the monster at the end of the garage.

Custom Garage Cabinets for Tim’s

The “monster cabinet” at the end of the garage was made out of 3/4 inch MDF & painted a matching gray color. The doors utilize sliding door hardware. Although the doors have pulls, I thought it would be a good idea to add chains to open the doors from the ground.
