    Small cherry desk

    I made this a long time ago, sometime around the bicentennial year, and did it with the tools I had then, a radial arm saw, a 7/8 hp Rockwell router, and some hand tools. Mistakes abound, the biggest to me the use of some sapwood.

    Drawer pulls are apple, and inspired by something I saw in the books by James Krenov I still have and read.

    Cherry does age so fine.

    Krenov's, a great inspiration. https://archive.org/details/3331-Memorial-JamesKrenov-Oct312009

    I like the sapwood. I think it adds visual interest. Nice job!
