Blanket Chest

After about 3 months of off and on work I finally completed the blanket chest I've been working on. This is definitely my most challenging project to dare and it required to try many new techniques. Some of the firsts included breadboard ends, hand-cut half-blind dovetails, and a dovetailed case.  This took me quite awhile and I made several mistakes but it feels good to get it done!!
