The Bedroom
Storage and a bed and lots more storage.

This still from a BBC production of Daniel Deronda provided the inspiration for the colour scheme of the bedroom. | |

If only I could get the room empty this easily. |

It's a very small room and I need to plan storage carefully. This is only a rough idea of what I have in mind. |

I saw this desk in an antique store in Charlottesville. I would like to see if I can fit a version of the pullout section into one of the cupboards. |

I haven't decided which make or model lathe to get yet, or where to put it in the bedroom... But it's nice to find someone has already created a sketchup model of one to help me decide where it put it. |

And here is a view from the north east corner of the room showing the wardrobes. Hmmm... it's starting to look a little "snug" in there. |
|
 |
Machine tools like my lathe and milling machine will slide in and out of the worktop and there will be a blanking piece. |
|
 |
Not sure how this will work out around the angles at the other end of the room but I like the idea of a curved ceiling supported by ironwork. |
|
 |
I've put a wider top on the borrowed table saw. Here I'm cutting the sled. Makes cutting safer and more accurate. Bout only as long as all my initial measurements were correct. |
|
 |
Let's take a look out the back door to see what the weather's been doing while I've been working. |

Design for the pull-out / lift-up / bench-bed. Obviously this isn't finnished yet... I won't be trying to sleep on a 2" bar. |
