About this block
Small round-base unit with rectangular body, drawn in plan, front and side elevation. It measures 15½" wide, 23" deep and 4' 4" high (40 cm × 59 cm × 1.33 m), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
It also comes as a 3D model built from these drawings.
From the Commercial kitchen and buffets library: 96 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
A small floor-standing machine such as a vegetable peeler or a small slicer on a round pedestal, drawn in plan at 15½ by 23 in (40 by 58 cm). It goes in prep rooms, pizzerias and bakery back rooms, usually at the end of a counter or against a wall. Use it to fill the equipment schedule on a ¼ in = 1 ft (1:50) kitchen layout.
Clearances to leave
Small as it is, the unit needs 24 in (60 cm) of working space in front and at least 4 in (10 cm) to the wall behind for the cable. Its 15½ in (40 cm) width lets it tuck beside a counter end, and the 23 in (58 cm) depth matches a standard 24 in (60 cm) counter line so the fronts align.
Pairs with
Pair it with Round drum machine with side motor box in a butchering or prep room, or set it at the end of Prep counter with sink, drainboard and mixer. A stainless backsplash behind both machines keeps the wall clean.
