Huge Armoire


My wife has been bugging me to build something for her stuff, so I took on this project.

The walnut doors are plywood from Greenply. It's a green product but is shipped all the way from New Zealand, so whatever. I'm happy with how it came out, but I have to say that the walnut veneer on the plywood is very thin. I had some tear-out from the cross-cut and if you look closely, there are places where you can see the MDF ply behind the veneer. Next time, I'll find a better quality plywood.

This is over 7' tall, 44" wide and 21" deep, enough for a coat rack. It has six shelves, four adjustable. Made of walnut and maple plywood. The base is removable, and I may put on a brushed aluminum base at some point.
