Frank, the upper tower sit on top of the lower case. They are then secured to studs in the wall behind the towers.
Thanks!

Great looking cabinets. They will certainly hold quite a bit of stuff ;)
Definitely interested in seeing the screened porch.

Very nice work. You are obviously a talented crafstman (craftswoman?). I especially like the birch and walnut entertainment center featured on your web site. I think such natural wood contrasts are especially attractive. I hope to someday build projects as nice as yours.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks all! I appreciate the complements. I actually did an estimate for a piece last night made of walnut, I love working with it!

When I have more details on the show I will let you know. Thanks for asking, that's very nice.
