I am building a Curly Mahogany Armoire with raised panel doors on the top half, and 3 drawers on the bottom half. The drawer fronts will be Curly Mahogany-I was thinking about making them as Half-Blind Dovetails or Sliding Dovetails or ?
Questions:
1. For the drawer sides and back, which wood should I use (Fronts will be Curly Mahogany and bottoms will be Baltic Birch Plywood.) ?
A. Poplar?
B. Which other woods can be used?
C. Baltic Birch Plywood (not for the half-blind?)—For the sliding dovetails?
2. Any other suggestions for the drawer construction? (not half-blind or sliding).
3. Any finishing suggestions for Curly Mahogany?
Thanks so much,
Phil
