I am planning to renovate my bathroom. I live in NYC and have a very small bathroom so I want to optimize my space. Let me explain my layout then get to the woodworking question. On one wall is (from left to right) a radiator, vanity, and toilet. On the opposite wall is the tub/shower. I want to build a vanity that encloses the radiator (on top, but leave the front vented). There would maybe be a drawer over the radiator, a door in the middle and two drawers on the other end. This would be topped with a granite top or something to that effect. This would allow about 8-10 inches more space on the sinktop. I will have an access for the valve, and I think foam insulation around the enclosure. I plan to use maple. Is it a good idea to enclose the radiator or should I worry about warping? Any suggestions are encouraged.
