Janky Shapes Made Out Of Wood (9/8/20)

There are four janky shapes: a cabinet; a very tall bed frame; a cube that goes over the toilet; and (not pictured) a low shelf with storage underneath that goes across the back of the van. Prior to this, my only experience building janky shapes out of wood was when I was 15 and built a treehouse. So the build quality of all this isn’t great, but so far none of it has collapsed, and that’s really all I’m going for. The white cloth stuff is an old sail. I figured it would a) look kind of neat and b) save weight compared to using plywood panels. It’s also cheaper than plywood -- a guy down near Chatfield Reservoir south of Denver with a boatyard was willing to trade an old sail for a bottle of medium-shelf red wine. I’d like to incorporate more of those found/repurposed/traded/recycled materials like that, but the pandemic makes it tricky. It was nice to be able to use a lot of scrap wood: some of the frames and paneling for these janky shapes were old 2x4s and plywood that my brother just had lying around.
