Lorraine, that is a really nice piece of heirloom furniture. I can see why your husband is proud of it. That is quite an accomplishment.

Tom, I find myself looking at the cabinet and saying, "You really made that?" The children haven't seen the completed product yet so I am anxious for them to see it. You know their brains will say, "I wonder if I will be getting that when they are both gone." I have two grown children, a son and a daughter. The daughter get a desk which is the next project and the son has his project in the planning stages. I am ready to say, I build and you provide some of the expense of materials. I can't make anything for on commission because I have my hands full with family projects. I don't mind. | |

Nice cabinet Lorraine! Those upper doors look GREAT!  What did you think of the big box ply? I have been thinking of using some for a desk but was unsure of it. Also, where did you get the red oak, big box too? Again, great looking piece that you should be proud of.

Very nice!!! I like Woodsmith plans too. I am working on an entertainment center for my son based upon one of their plans right now. I also thought they were wasting wood so I modified some - ran into an associated mistake but I was able to recover.
What stain did you use?

Mark, would I interest you in an oak desk? That is the next project which has my daughter's name on it. She probably has her eye on the entire dining room set. The table is about 200 years old, a game table with two ends that can be hidden or pulled out. Sorry but you know how children are. Happy to be able to give you an idea or two.
Jim, I used Varathane, Americn Walnut as the stain. I borrowed a can from a friend to see what it would look like on my oak and I was sold. It is a perfect match to my oak chairs. | |
