It has been a while since I last posted the progress on my Mission style nightstand.  It was designed to allow the side subs, bottom shelf, drawer rail sub, and upper rail sub to be finished prior to assembly.  Finish is (1) coat med brown trans tint dye stain, (1) coat seal coat, (1) coat GF gel stain, (1) coat seal coat, and/or (2/3) coats of SW Kem Aqua Plus clear dull rubbed  (WB lacquer).  The receipt is a Jeff Jewitt schedule which closely resembles the Stickley look.  I’m now working on door panel mother-of-pearl inlay and dovetail drawer.  .  I have started on the bed.  All (4) post/legs have been sized and the rails have been planed to rough dimn.  I have a need to build a mockup for the leg to rail interfaces.  The side rails will be attached using a double mortise , loose tenon, hidden bolt & nut assemble.  I also plan to make my dovetails using the TS method.  It may be a while before I post again.  I have been volunteered to remodel my son’s home bathroom, starting Oct.1    More to follow.   Thanks for looking.  Danl

Beautiful Danl!

VERY nice.....:drool:

 

That is a great job. Love the design. Did a TV stand for my son in this style. It had 24 mortises which was not the fun part.

Top notch craftsmanship Dan. A modern build heirloom piece.

Some absolutely beautiful grain.

Thanks for sharing and taking along this magnificent build.

Wow, love this piece.
