A wall but not a wall

I had a request from a customer to build a wall but no really a wall. He wanted something that made little inpack in the house and would not require studs, and drywall, and sanding, and painting, and all the mess that goes with the above.
The solution was to construct a panelized wall that I could completely finish in the shop and in one day install it at the job site and whala!!! instant wall.

The most important aspect of this project was taking accurate feild measurments.
The Floor slopes, the walls aren't plum or striaght, and the roof (ceiling) has a sag in it, what fun!
For this type of situation I use a small laser level that will cast perfectly vertical and horizontal lines, I use these lines s reference lines and take measurements from certian critical points to these lines . Then I can recreate these points in a CAD drawing and make my parts using My CAD drawing as a guide.

So here is the finished product, It looks as though it was always there. No Muss No fuss.
6 hours on the job site, clean and no wet paint.

    I've pretty much had my hands on wood for the most part of my Life. Started in High school, on Marthas Vineyard Mass.Worked under a Father and son Partnership that taught me the valuable foundation of what High End work really is.
    I've taken those fundimentals and put my own spin on things. Today (some 36 years ago as I write this )My shop is located in Northern New Hampshire, where I have followed my philosophy of doing high quality work and delivering more than the
    customer expects.
