I found it particularly stressful this time because I was heavily reliant on the technicians to help me make my cabinet, which I had no idea how to design or fabricate. I was completely dependent on them telling me how it could be made, which left me with little idea about how to get what I wanted. I'm not an assertive person so if something perhaps wasn't looking quite right I don't have the confidence to say so....because what do I know, perhaps it will look right in the end.
Making the cabinet was also a little heartbreaking because I'm not very good at spending money...however, no expense (seriously no expense0 was spared for this thing.... which is why it had to turn out right.
There are a few things which turned out a little different to how I had planned - for example how the glass aligns with the inside instead of outside measurement of the frame, which I think looks a little strange. This was the direct result of me following instructions and those instructions perhaps not aligning with what would actually take shape as we made the design up as we went along.
In future... what can I do in future to change that? have more confidence (in what aspect of my life don't I need that) and know more. Its down to experience I guess. I'm happy with the look of the cabinet overall, it serves its purpose, its not shoddy (I really hope) and it works well in the space.
