Cabinets
This began with the idea to create a stereo cabinet and evolved into two sideboards on either side of the fireplace. The tops and legs are solid walnut, and the boxes are plywood with Hardwood edgebanding. Having the plywood doors running horizontally allowed for the continuous grain flow. In the cabinet on the right I left a 1 inch gap on the top back of the cabinet for the heat from the stereo to escape.
Walnut Buffet
My wife found a picture of this in a danish modern furniture book and asked if I could make it… The picture was blurry, black-and-white and tiny. The thing I like most about this cabinet is that the doors hang 1 inch below the boxes so you can open them with your feet, meaning you don't have any door pulls to distract from the grain flow.
Walnut Hutch
This was a project to teach basic cabinetry skills to level three Woods students based on James Krenovs work. The doors are bookmatched White Oak. For the cabinet assembly, we used a simple dowel jig. We used 180 degree self closing hinges instead of knife hinges, (though I think the knife hinges would have looked better). There is also a small drawer and 2 shelves inside. I have since removed the legs and now use it to hold all my sharpening apparatus.
Krenov Inspired Cabinet
I traded a guy this custom built stereo cabinet to fit his needs in exchange for reviving an old motorcycle I had. It's made of Alder with Purple eart accents. All the joinery on the legs were hand cut mortise and tenons.
Stereo Cabinet
I built this Soft Maple Cabinet to house all my Diabetic Insulin Pump supplies. The front is actually 3 pieces of wood glued up to create even grain flow. The stand is Walnut. The interior was drilled out to accommodate shelf pins so I could move the shelves around as needed.
