Someone said to me the other day - "jeez, you're only teaching two nights a week.... add some classes!"
Obviously, he didn't realize that I'm building quite a bit of furniture these days, and that's almost a full time job in itself! The truth is - I'm really enjoying getting back to basics - cool joinery, working with beautiful woods, and experimenting with different finishes.
I just finished this Cherry desk, and it's one of my favorites.
I've built variations of this design a few times, but this one is a special one. You don't find grain like this all the time, and I'm not sure if it really shows in these photos, but the drawer fronts are simply gorgeous.
I have a few more pieces in the pipeline, and one of them will be a real challenge, employing a wood that I don't normally use, along with a finish that I've never tried.
What could go wrong? LOL
Stay tuned!
That desk is gorgeous!
