Honing the Studio Design

This weekend I've spent some time learning SketchUp from a woodworkers perspective.  Coupled with my other research on woodworking, I think I'm starting to understand how to build something well.  I also found some horror stories of fingers going missing when working with wood and power tools, but that topic is for another day.  Actually, I don't even want to think about it.

So...it's been a little while since I posted about the studio. I've been busy. If I'm not working, I'm trying to learn about woodworking and that kind of thing. Yet another hobby.

Anyway, I wanted to post my design idea for a free standing superchunk. The thought is that this baby will sit in the corner and can be moved later on if need be. I'll put some small rubber feet or a sliding pad on the very bottom. It has a 1 by strip in the back of the cabinet for extra support and durability. I'll also be sealing it off airtight. Rabbet joints complete the design for some added support instead of sloppy butt joints. I'm kind of wondering how heavy this thing is going to be at 9' tall!

This is the 2D version of it but I think it's pretty self explanatory. I'll model it in 3D as I continue to hone my Sketchup Skills. I'm learning quite a bit by following some stuff I found from Popular Woodworking on SketchUp for woodworkers.

-- EDIT --

These are going to be heavy. I thought about a stackables thing but I'd like to avoid it if I can. The true reason for my design is so I can avoid attaching it to the walls permanently. If they ever get moved, they're getting dismantled and burned. So once they're in place, they aren't going anywhere. But I don't want to attach them to the walls or damage my trim in the event that I need to take them down.

I may build a prototype and see what kind of weight I'm dealing with and how easy (or not) it will be to work with.

The 3D model of it is done. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out and it really helped me work some of the kinks out of the design and think things through better. Hopefully I get faster at designing in SketchUp because this was a bit of a bitch.
