Type of wire used?

9 years ago

To reiterate previous questioners, what's the wire in top section? I suspect it's a high-tensile variety. Thanks, and beautiful work.

Hello again!! Just short of 2 years later, my den is finally finished and looks pretty much like how I've envisaged it. Few months ago, I was extremely lucky to meet this carpenter who is really good and doesn't mind building my 'designs' :)) and we got to work. After finishing the hall and main bedroom (http://www.houzz.co.uk/projects/723044/hall / [https://www.houzz.co.uk/discussions/colour-for-unit-top-dsvw-vd~2977620[(https://www.houzz.co.uk/discussions/colour-for-unit-top-dsvw-vd~2977620)) we finally started on my den. As you'll notice, in planning the space, I've used a mixture of your ideas above: it has a secret door, a (folding) desk, it's a bit of an art gallery and has a few other surprises! The initial plan had to be altered to accommodate my new hobby :)). Almost one year ago, I had this mad idea to start painting (on) glass and then to make silly clay figurines, so I adapted the space to suit my pursuits (like the slightly tilted shelves for paints, peg board for scissors, top shelf for expo, etc). Plus, you can't really tell which of the panels are in fact secrets doors!! As for the rest, I bought a rubber mat to protect the oak floor and I'm using a trolley for the rest of the materials, so it can easily be moved out the way in case we need access to the back. Carpenter insisted on the LEDs, I'm not that keen on them. So, ignoring the arty-farty clutter, what do you think of my space?

Maybe? I'd double check the depth with the company if it can't be any deeper than 30 cm, but... they say it's 30 deep on the dimensions drawing https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/page/3BFB443C-DD42-4153-BEE9-A47C872160D3?ingress=2&visitId=9ebe1bac-d232-4ccc-8210-d23db119b1c2&ref_=ast_bln Better link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cozzine-5-Shelf-Shelving-Organisation-Bathroom/dp/B07DL13939?ref_=ast_sto_dp They say it's 33 cm in the text. On the drawing it says 30 cm. But it looks like it's exactly what you're looking for?

wow that last junction box picture is a bit scary! from your pics it looks like they're not connected to anything so probably fine to get rid but you should have them tested to see if the other ends go to something live before you start cutting them! find a nice local electrician to come and have a quick look for you and run their testers along it, they shouldn't charge much just to have a look and advise.
