Radiator Coveralls


Although they didn't become popular until the 1920s, radiator covers are an elegant, functional way to dress up an old radiator with a custom-built wooden cabinet. This radiator cover from TomKat Fine Woodworking is made from oak-veneer plywood and solid red oak with a metal grille in front. The brass or silver grille comes in one of three patterns: punch hole, union jack, or clover (pictured). Because the cabinets are built to individual specifications, prices vary but generally start at around $500 for a 3'-wide cover with a metal grille. For details, visit www.tomkatfinewoodworking.com, or call (973) 443-0544.
