I love the finish on the fascia, it looks a bit like retro.
What is it?

Thanks Bill, that was the idea.

It´s 9 mm plywood which has been coated with 3 different tones of brown coating ( I don´t know what it is called in english, but it´s kinda clearcoat but with color and the wood absorbs it). The plywood was also grinded between each layer to give it more aged appear.

I love it Marko. Only criticism I’d say was that it was a pity the the sides were not boxed too. Sort of look unfinished from the sides.

Also, is there a reason you used the raised screw heads with caps and not countersunk fixings? Just curious that s all.

Thanks for sharing.

The sides were boxed after taking the picture.
The screwheads are like I wanted them to be, it looked a bit “flat” with nothing on the margin (but I didn´t want to frame it, it would have looked too massive).

Thanks for looking.
