Mikejpt Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Well, winter is almost here and now I'm well into the summer build. This is my take. Chest on chest. Solid cherry (including the back). Platform base. Have not started the drawers. Unfortunately, I've got to stop for Christmas presents. Marc's videos are constant reference and though they don't even look like cousins, the build concept is similar. Because I had to use some new stuff with the old cherry (and a little sapwood) I've decided to dye the piece. Will use General Vintage Cherry Dye. Have run several test pieces and the dye does well over Charles Neils Bloth Control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobcrosley Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 This thread seems to have been brought back from the dead. Or at least from a while back. But I literally gasped at one of those finished pictures. The work is absolutely beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
