Steampunk Drawer Unit

cults3d

I inherited a (nobody would take it at a family garage sale) beautiful 80's mahogany (it was pretty ugly) two drawer filing cabinet. Sorry, I don't have an untouched before picture. A construction grade 2 x 4 was sliced into 3/16" pieces which were sanded stained and epoxied onto the cabinet. The 3D printed pieces were designed to mimic an old steamer trunk and the 4 centrepieces were added because?? Within the centrepieces is a non functioning planetary gear system. All printed pieces were primed and painted with metallic acrylic paints and then finished with water-based varathane. It is now a unique furniture piece and a very functional home filing cabinet.
