2.1 // Eichler Door Repair

Stephan’s new door

Our neighbor Stephan needed a new door — the old one was in terrible condition (and it was a terrible door). Like many, we replaced more than just the door. The post needed to be resecured and there was a good bit of adjacent refining. The best part was the color… Check it out.

When looking at the Norcalmod / Redneckmodern / Cyanovox / MicroEichler / EichlerStencil world, I either need another world… or I need to keep more of the renovaiton stuff over here (and the work on my house at Redneckmodern). In lieu of creating yet another universe, I’ll keep the Eichler door stuff over here especially since they’ve become so prevalent — but they’ll get their own category.

John’s 8X8 CSSU + desk(s)

At 8ft X 8ft, this is the largest and most ambitious build to date — and also the largest I can make a CSSU based on existing stock limitations… and, come to discover, workshop-space limitations. Made of 

Made from maple multi-ply and luan-mahogany, it's a 3-bay unit with individual, custom flip-down desks. There's loads of great grain alignment and minimal details — it's pretty bad-ass. Next up — a library ladder to attach up top.

Finished installation:

[The three center desks are designed to flip up into the body of the cabinet when not in use. You can flip each up/down independently and are held up by internal magnets embedded in each desktop.]

Nate’s entertainment console

I've been remiss updating things and I've got a few to catch up on. First up, Nate's record console — a birch and white-melamine cabinet which is a bit of a structural departure from the typical CSSU faire. At 80in wide, it's a large one — and it features birch sliding doors and walnut accents. The interior is drilled for easy cable management and we added a pair of white doors for fun — he can swap from birch to white if the mood strikes.
