Control Center 1.jpg

This project was commissioned by the Scottish Rite Cathedral in Indianapolis. They needed a compact storage unit to hold their lighting control system for their theater. A large and small version were made from White Oak, and Red Oak Ply. The lid had to be lightweight, but sturdy. That is why the panel construction. The problem with being lightweight, and almost 5' long the top wanted to sag, so a curved brace/glide in the center was used. It was an interesting project, because of the space constraints, The operator had to be able to see the stage. The restricted how far back from the wall it could sit 4", that is why the top folds in half, and then slides over and down the back of the unit.
