So In my intro to this web site I mention the use of a variety of different materials;
In this project , A kitchenette for a local theme motel, Adventure Suites in North Conway NH.. I am making use of some materials not usually used in a woodworking shop. The Name for this room is "The Dragon's Lair"

well first of all I wanted a somewhat primitive look to the face of the cabinet doors and drawer fronts, so I used a moisture resistant MDF and CNC router carved in a couple of textures that would resemble a rough plank look with forged steel straps and steel button head rivets for effect. The wood texture was painted and glazed to look authentic and the straps were painted using Modern Masters brand "Steel grey" paint. Then this was clear coated for durability and ease of cleaning.
For the upper section I opted to do the stone effect using real stone veneer by stoneyard.com .
If you compare this photo to the opening photo of this post you can see that the left top corner of this alcove gets a wall cabinet with a micro wave shelf to the right.
Oh Weight! This thing is freakin heavy. But it did come out looking pretty cool almost looks like a Dragon's lair.
The counter top will be a "steel grey" granite with an antiqued finish.
