Shafer Hood

This beautiful hood was patterned on the Winery doors I did earlier (shown elsewhere on this site). Here it is shown finished, at home, in its new home in New Jersey.

This decorative hood covers a functional one (made by others). The designer had specified some terrific hardware and lighting, and wanted a hood that could keep up. She found me on line, and working together with a cabinetmaker in New Jersey we produced this hood. The client loves it.

Ed, stepson and helper, brushes the bare steel to give it a slight texture and to thoroughly clean it.

This construction detail shows how the panels have been fit together.

After many, many layers and much time, the finished hood is approved and ready to ship.

The hood has been screwed to a custom crate for transport to New Jersey.
