I made my first large case project in many years.  I've been focusing on turning, or little round stuff as my wife calls it.  I made sooooo many mistakes but I managed to hide them:



It is solid ambrosia maple on the front with maple ply sides.  I finished with shellac.

Very striking!  Nice job.

Very nice, I really like it! If I don't have mistakes, it didn't get made.

Very nice! What did you use or do for legs?

Always good to see a fellow Upstater on here - I'm in the Snowbelt Region just North of Syracuse.

Thanks for the kind words everybody!

I used hairpin legs like these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G78...UTF8&psc=1  I was going for a midcentury modern look.  I'm down near Binghamton, btw.

Very nice!!

Great job organizing that grain pattern.  Love it!

Frank,
Good looking project! You did a super job of arranging the drawer fronts so the grain pattern flows trough the drawers.

Very nice indeed!
