Not a "retro" build per se, but that furniture looks awesome! Was it completely DIY?

Inquiring minds want to know about the end cap! Been looking for one for years!
How did you do it? |

yes, I made a few of them. Since I didn't want to cross any lines here I have left this thread alone. Don't want this to labeled as advertising.
