Ruben, should we pm you for prices on flatpacks and finished enclosures?
Thanks,
Ted
Thanks for all of the compliments guys! :DRuben,
Since I'm starting to get a little bit overwhelmed by all of the interest, I've recruited some extra help to assist me in getting better organized and to help keep me on track. I've gotten a little too scattered these past couple of weeks. :oops: I will be updating everyone who is waiting for numbers within the next couple of days.
Thanks again for your patience and for bearing with us through this sometimes difficult learning curve.
Ruben
Ruben, I completely understand what it is like to get swamped and need help. I'm not a multitasker and tend to have target fixation.
Your cabinets are stupid pretty: :eyebrows: they make me go-DUUHHH!!! You do AWESOME work! :thumb: I hope nothing but the best for you. Keep it up.
Dave
Not weird. He's around, just really busy.Good deal. Just wondering.
Hey Ruben,
Is there some reason that you can't post a price list somewhere? You can always change it as the need arises and it would really cut down on your PMs. Just because I am curious and after seeing your pics I am kind of embarrassed about my own "work". :oops:
Best,
Don
Dude Ruben, these cabinets are sick. The gloss is ridiculous!!!

Although it has been said before. It's worth saying again these are absolutely stunning; first rate.

Another one! :D

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St RUBEN soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of PIANO BLACK N3S' danced in their heads.
wow..........
Thanks Scott! :D
If anyone is curious, these enclosures (as shown) are $350 each. :thumb:

Showed my wife these pics last night and she got a huge smile and said, wow those are gorgeous! I think they passed the WAF test :thumb:
I will post raw built and flat pack prices this weekend.
that sounds exciting.
I think the veneer is the fun part. It doesn't look anything like what Ruben does but it just takes some TLC to get something that looks decent.
Can this approach be used with laminate?
Thinking of the gloss black 909. My wife is not into the "woody" look... so that is what I am leaning toward and this seems more economical to a painted finish.

When I worked with gloss laminate it scratched very easily. It has a protective plastic on it for a reason. Also the edges are not very attractive and all those sharp edges will present a lot of occasion for chipping during shipping and while moving them around. All in all, IMO this would be a step, or two, down from Reuben's very fine work.
Although maybe Ruben has a different take on this. Also, maybe a mix of materials so you don't get the seam from adjoining edges.
Thanks very much for that. Didn't realize it was that fragile.
bump.
Curious about the prices...
The average DIYer can get a decent looking veener job with enough time and patience.
The pre-veneered kits are for those who, for whatever reason(s), would rather not have to handle the veneering aspect themselves.
Those who'd prefer to apply veneer themselves will have the option of purchasing the QFES raw.
Was just wondering if you made any progress on your construction system, Ruben. Sounds very interesting, just not sure how it would work and how the finished product would look.
Ruben - Where are you hiding :scratch: I would like to move forward on my builds please get back with me.

Hi Ruben-
Just curious...how much would it cost to build Super V enclosures?
:)
Ruben,
Could you please post prices for the X-LS and X-LS Encore finished in gloss? (or PM).
Thanks
Thanks Ruben, i did ask him, i wasn't aware they'd be finished cabinets, my impression (which is probably wrong) is they were unfinished.
