This is what I worked on over the long 4th of July weekend. I finished the finish yesterday night. It's Cherry with a Ambrosia Maple top panel. Felt bottomed drawers, and brass 5 mm barrel hinges. I finished it with blond shellac and then several coats of gloss spray lacquer with a final coat of semi-gloss to knock down the sheen.







I think that this may be as close to a "perfect" project as I've ever came. Only one noticable flaw

Thanks for looking

Dave

BTW, I agree with Steve. Your posting count is down if you think about it. Normally, you run more than triple overall posts than everyone else. Now, it is getting down to just double.
Travis, the drawer runs on hard Maple runners in slots on the drawer sides.
I still post as much as always....y'all are just getting the hang of it and starting to catch up
