Is your house heated by big clunky radiators? Are they eyesores that are taking up valuable space in each room? If so, you can build custom radiator covers that will attractively hide the metal monsters and provide you with a convenient shelf for storage or decorative pieces.... A radiator cover is essentially a 3-sided box with a top. The front of the box will be a frame that contains a screen. The top and two sides will be solid pieces of wood. 1, record 1, English, - radiator%20cover
