I'm making a cupboard to have a rather heavy bit of music equipment sat on top, total around 60kg maybe more.
I was thinking making a box frame, screw it to the wall at the back and metal gussets on the inner corners, then clad with some kitchen doors I have spare. using this timber - https://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Studwork-CLS-Timber---38-x-63-x-2400mm/p/107177
would this be sufficient or would more be needed? the timber would be the strength part, cladding is just for cosmetic purposes. it will have a slab of marble worktop at the top making up a fair part of the weight. dimensions will be approx, 60cm deep x 90cm tall x 70cm wide.
