I'm using Red Oak. The cabinet is a Garret Hack small tool cabinet. It will end up in the master bath though as a medicine cabinet. I recived the shaving mug, razor and a brush that was my Grandpas and that my dad gave him his last shave with. It's not going in a box in the closet to be forgotten. I'll post pics every now and then. It has dentil moulding and a cornice, sliding dovetails and  half blind dovetails. There are at least 5 techniques and or joinery that are new to me.

 Woo Hoo

That means I might have to buy a few new tools. The goal of most of my projects is things I haven't done and don't have the tools for.

Getting ready to knock down some stock to rough size for a small cabinet. Spent Sat. sharpening saws, plane blades and chisels. Oh saw Buddy Guy last night he had the most beautiful acustic guitar. Sounded good to.

Yes sir! that is how I got my tools, I looked for projects that need new ones! And the convincing of LOML became a bit easier.

No such luck, I was routing all the rabbets, and after the 3rd piece out of 10 my router decided to take a permanent smoke break. That's about the way all last week went for me. Oh well this one will be better .
