Hello, I have noticed that most kitchen cabinet shop will do other carpentry works such as shoe shelves, table, etc. I am wondering if it is normal for Kitchen Cabinet shop to do carpentry works for commercial as well? the carpentry price that the ID quoted is too much, we are hoping to just stick to paying the ID for drawing only and employ our own sub cons for the job, I do have other reliable contractors contacts for other works, but am missing the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle - carpenters...  I do have the dimension, drawings, measurements etc, just need to find a good carpenter, or will the Kitchen Cabinet shop also able to do a good job like cashier counter table (spray paint with glass), shelving (spray paint) and metal rods (powder coated) for hanging clothes, it is for a fashion boutique. Thank you very much in advance  This post has been edited by smooth9: May 21 2011, 03:12 AM |

QUOTE(Eleganz Concept @ May 21 2011, 11:28 AM) Most of the time, KC shop will only using those material to build a square cabinet example like chipboard, so if your design are also using that kind of material, i think they can do it as well. but if you say the design is a bit special, and need to use laminate or other mathod, i think is hard for them, or even they do, also charge bit high. Thank you for your advice, in that case KC shop might not suit our need for the carpentry that much due to our budget and also the furnitures needed is not for a square cabinet too. I really wanted to look for Carpenter from high to low, tried forums, tried yellow pages, tried internet, tried asking friends... but so far cannot find any carpenter contact, ended up founding more designers who can design and built, some of them are really good, but the problem is we do not need more designer for only a project... since we already have one... and part of the designer job is also to draw the full dimension for built, which he did already, so we did have the drawings and dimension in paper, but need to find someone to actually built it.  Does anyone have ANY RELIABLE Carpenter contact to share  |

QUOTE(cwhong @ May 22 2011, 11:34 PM) ok, make myself clear actually plywood got few different category as below.... 1: Full Plywood - body/carcass and doors was using plywood 2: Partial plywood - carcass melamine board and doors used plywood 3: Formica with plywood body/carcass options 1 have veneer plywood (artificial / natural), plywood can have many different grains/species ..... like nyatoh, semangkok, sen, oak, pine, maple and etc etc etc ..... all this was in the option 1 category ..... so really hard to tell which is how much just as thats without specify what u need. but generally for options 1 can be around 40-60% more than melamine board if really have to give a figures..... but if this goes to ID then the price may go higher cost the will provide u the design and coordinations process......... Hi cwhong, Thank you very much for your detailed explanation, you are right spot on that the project required a plywood carpenter, seems like the carpenter that we shall look for is a carpenter who does fully plywood, as the design is using spraypaint, glass per your first post, and nyatoh finishing per your second post on some of the furniture. At least we now have a direction... thanks for showing us the light cwhong, really appreciated it. Now, the next step is to search for relevent carpenter, cheers  |
