    • You’re right. The second pic with the reveal of the first drawer and the next two is a little extreme but kinda looks cool. Thanks for that! 
    • Yes.  Sam had examples of rounding the drawer dividers, the divider junctions, drawer fronts, or a combination.  My use of it is a little less dramatic.  
    • More veneering ... moving on to the drawer fronts ... To get a tight joint at the bookmatch ... apply one side overlapping the other slightly, then score through both layers with a knife, peel back the top layer and remove the surpless from the lower layer, then hammer down the veneers again ... I slughtly damaged this veneer, but it doesn't show in the final joint: I was a bit worried that the veneer on the door faces would crack on me like the panels did, since it is such as wide piece of veneer. The curve makes it slightly harder to hammer down, but not too much ... ended up with just one crack of not, and a couple of small ones, oh well. I also added a backing veneer on the doors to try and balance them a little. And finally all the drawer fronts and doors are veneered. Time to air out the garage and get the smell of the hide-glue out.
    • Long day whelping puppies today.  First time Mom had a bit of a hard time, but didn't lose a puppy and all five healthy and strong.
    • I like your micro fence adjuster on the router table.  The “Maloof Round” you refer to; is that where the vertical dividers meet the horizontal ones or the reveal of the drawer front edges?
