Fun with LED s

makeitfit · 13-01-2013, 22:17

This is what I do when I can't play off roading

I have today been mainly making some custom RGB LED strips for this week's kitchen fit

funky or what

They've been made to fit round the back of their AGA and will have glass splash backs fitted on top of them. Then the LEDs will shine up through the glass

I hope

Yep do my own fab work except on granite. Festool too bloody expensive for me. I'm old skool router and hoover

See here a recent bathroom I did without festool

All inframe stuff and marble shower splashbacks etc

Wow. What can I say the pictures speak for themselves

Did you make the shaker doors and bath panel ?

makeitfit · 14-01-2013, 00:21

Nah, I get them made for me and do all the onsite stuff. Basic panel is made then I graft it all together. Curved skirts etc cut n fitted on site. Marble work templated then I do all the fiddly bits and get paid

Spot on mate

I get some stuff from magnet/howdens but I have just this year started fabbing a lot more myself. I get vinyl wrapped chip board cut into rips of 580 and edged on one side, then I make carcasses from that. I get all my doors made to size from vinyl wrapped mdf etc and I fab lg Himacs and Hanex as well as the usual composites/laminate/hardwood etc

Seem to do more bedrooms now tho, but its very hit and miss of late, quiet time of year for me

Can't be doing with all that Magnet/Howdens shite, move up the ladder a few runs mate. premium products for discerning clients

They're still around and you get more time to make more money

I do about one kitchen a month but they're good earners

If I get the odd fit in the mean time then quids in

stinka · 14-01-2013, 08:59

Yeh, like I say I make a lot of car casing myself and I get my doors from ba components and I fab Himacs and Hanex

Ha ha, yes BA components ,"top o' the mornin' to ya'

Good company to be fair but Apex are better and bigger choice and more flexible than BA especially on specials

Not used Hi macs but I guess it's the same as Encore and Mia etc . I usually sell up to granite though, keep it simple mate ;0
