Hi

I'm sure you know that mahogany is the main timber to choose (rosewood is also OK)

Obviously Peter Nichols cabinets are the most famous in the UK.

There are 2 Ebay sellers that hand build these.

Smokerings (he has a nice one on Ebay now..read his feedback :) )

I bought mine from a seller Forestgreen....nice

Avoid Oak MDF and the like.

Smokerings one is £285 delivered and if I wanted another I think I would go with this.

Good luck.

Yep Declan

A true craftsman.

My cabinet is for my farthings.

My grandfather was a cabinet maker.

A trade that was tempting.I ended up with an O level in metalwork.I can still put my hand to DIY.

I've done a house and 2 bungalows in the last 5 years and enjoy the hands on approach.

I'm a QS by trade but happily get down to laying laminate floor and wall tiling,boxing in pipes I've done this to shut Mrs Peters gripe that I didn't do DIY.

Quite frankly when working flat out I prefer good craftsmen....it is all horses for courses.
