It's been awhile since I've been in the woodshop so it's nice to actually be able to share something with all of you. I started this on April 27, and just finished it up this afternoon. It's nothing fancy or original. The snap shop of Peter Turner's version in the latest FWW got my juices flowing. I took most of the dimensions after a version that was produced at the Canterbury Shaker Village.
I don't have access to regular quantities of curly anything so I take what I can get. In this case, it wasn't much but enough to give the drawers and table top some character.
I normally use BLO on everything, but I wanted to keep the maple top as white as possible, so I skipped the BLO for the top and shot it with some water white pre-cat lacquer. Very happy with the results.
The pics are pretty self explanatory. If you want to check out the construction pics, I've posted them at my personal site so as not to take up bandwidth here.
Thanks for looking... Jason
