This is a side table I did based on a shaving stand Norm did on NYW. I used sliding dovetails for the side and bottom and to put the top on . The drawers have my first try at handcut dovetails. The only screws in the piece are in the base to attach it to the drawer box and in the drawer runners. The top had a nice figure in it which I did not see till I applied the shellac. Also my first time to french polish with shellac. The garnet shellac (the only finish) will even out the color of cherry so even the sapwood will not look so bright.

Excellent work and great details.

Just curious what wood was used, Pine?

That looks great.  Nice layout and execution on each and every joint.

Sorry read it again it was cherry.

 

Now that's Craftsmanship, great job Gerald.

Great Job Gerald! Wonderful work and the PIP photos are great too.

Really nice workmanship! Well done!

Wow! now that is one nice piece of craftsmanship. Very well done.

Thanks for the comments. This is one piece I can say was truly a pleasure to build.
