The tall cabinet is installed with a peg leg made from plumbing parts. It awaits the doors. Stay posted.

Very nice! Your blog is interesting and fun. I love the serial posts of your projects.
I really like this one: very clean and simple. Also, the single leg reinforces the experience of the corner.
Thanks Josh. I agree about the single leg. It needed legs in the sketch because there were not any walls to hold it up. The original design had 4 skinny blue legs. I couldn’t find any tall skinny furniture legs to buy. In reality it doesn’t need any legs since it is screwed to two walls, but it didn’t seem quite right to have none. I headed to the hardware store on John’s suggestion for 3/4 galvanized pipe and fittings. They were more expensive than I anticipated, so I considered two legs…then realized that one leg was perfect. It gives a little extra support and as you say, emphasizes the experience of being a cabinet in a corner
and thanks mom!
