I am working on a low dresser on which I am getting close to the assembly stage. Thinking about finishing I understand that most people recommend not finishing the inside of a cabinet or drawer and this makes sense to me. What I am trying to understand is how to approach this in practice.
Do I need to mask off the inside edges of the dresser before I do any finishing? What tips/tricks are there to get good results on this?
How do you handle the drawer face vs. sides for HB dovetail drawers when the face is flush with the side (no overhang)? Do you finish the sides of the drawer at all, or just the face? What about the top edge of the drawer front? I am just wondering if this will look strange if it is unfinished and the front face is finished. :dontknow:
TIA,
Dave
