Casa Querétaro Lobby Millwork

In the first Casa Q post we focused on the CNC Detail work. Later in the week we started fabrication on the 17' bench that will be in the 1st floor lobby. The Bench Top and Face were fabricated first because they require very precise lock miters at inside and outside corners. The lower portion is a straight run and will be fabricated towards the end of the project.

The bench is fabricated from 3/4" Vertical Grain Chocolate Plyboo over a 3/4" FSC Birch Plywood Frame.
