High style!! Nice design, and makes me want to see the rest of the restaurant. Mark, do you have enough going on in your life? Architect, builder, furniture designer/craftsman, restauranteur....
Here the design really makes the piece. Each walnut piece is quarter sawn walnut plywood with a 1 1/2" solid edge. The top and bottom are only 1/4" thick. The edge is shaped to a soft curve in profile, The stainless rods support the plank by drilling into the floor and the ceiling. The panels follow a curve I laid out with a bent long board on the floor
This is a time I used biscuits in the long sides for alignment
Beautiful work Mark. Do the individual screens pivot or are they fixed? What finish did you use?
They are fixed, but I have made pivoting screens. The finish is tung oil and waxQuote:

Mark,
As always...perfect work!
Now about the new bistro...Grazing Plates? That's a new one on me...but it sure sounds like fun.
Small dishes like appetizers fun !Quote:
