Mantel

[paul1200]

Thanks to Michael Tyler, made these out of pine to start as per Michaels design and was so impressed with the result I decided to make them as a two sided project out of oak. I then made the L frames creating the profiles using A two rail sweep, a good learning curve.
I then set about the mantel itself using a length of 4" x 1" oak using a similar two rail sweep I'm sure there must be a simpler way, I then constructed the shelf using oak veneered board for the top and bottom and wrapped the profiled piece around the front and sides. I am really pleased with the result, just need to finish the rest of the fire place now.
