Towers Bedroom Tweek

[Leon]

For those that are familiar with the bedroom project that I have been working on, it was completed a few weeks ago. The tower cubby holes on both sides of the bed were a bit large and disorganized. I fixed that and installed some adjustable organization along with routes for clock, cell phone, etc wiring.

Have a look! Than thanks again for all the past comments.

PS. The vertical dado's on the sides of the openings are for the tennons of the towers rails to fit into. These openings are the only place that the dado's are exposed. Theses slots will accommodate "jack studs" :~) to hold the curtain rods up inside the openings. With the latest addition however curtains may not be needed to hide the "mess".

OBTY that top shelf has the 2009 Festool catalogue on it. The whole project was designed around my night time reading material. ;~)

Looks more functional and finished then the big opening did. I like it.

Oh, by the Yeti?

So, when you're floating around the ceiling, thinking of Festeringtools, they're within reach? Great idea.

idea to make it adjustable. In my case I would have it loaded with paperbacks to read and a spot to hold a drink. Hope you get many years and generations out of it. ;) `Casper

Thank you. I al already rethinking my lay out. I am thinking a drink spot in the narrower back column and remove some of the small shelves.

Nah, you want your cupholder -outside- the tower proper for those times you are certainly going to spill it. Put it on the front face about mattress height. A leather rub-strip on the corner couldn't hurt, either. Tack it down inside the reliefs and fasten the cupholder base over it.

Make one for a coffee mug, another for a Big Gulp, another for a teacup, another for a lemonade glass, another for a...well, just pimp it out proper, won't you?

Yeah I have been think about that. But in the organizer would be easier. I'd be constructing a cup holder like set up so spilling would be less likely, hopefully.

Maybe a little CHROME on the posts??? ;~)
