BarCombi
How it is made.
The cabinet is moulded in resin from the mould used for the front of the Volkswagen T1. Joinery, electrics and automotive paint come next.
How it is made
Four steps, from the mould to the clear coat.
-
The moulding
The bar is moulded in resin from the mould used to make the front of the Volkswagen T1.
-
The joinery
After it comes out of the mould, a joiner fits the shelves, the drawer, the top and the legs. The wood is MDF, chosen for its stiffness and its strength under repeated handling.
-
The electrics
An electrician fits the box that switches the lights and the mains socket, 110–200 V. The indicators (P21W bulbs), the headlights (H4 bulbs) and the sidelights (W5W bulbs) can come on separately, or all at once.
-
The paint
The fibreglass is prepared, then finished in automotive acrylic paint, with an automotive clear coat. Colours follow the period codes, or a custom shade.
