Well, the crib is finally complete. It was done using cherry for the majority of the unit, with accents of maple on the top of the end caps. The finish was 3 coats of wipe-on satin poly., which I have become a believer in through this project.

Now that this project is done, I’m taking a little break, but may continue doing some experimentation woodworking with different methods and designs.

Here’s the project I finished a little while ago. It is a dresser and a changing table for the little one. It is made primarily of cherry with maple accents. It is finished with many coats of semi-gloss laquer (actually forget how many). It has deep drawers with full extension slides. The top rail is made of three, 1” thick pieces, then screwed from beneath the top.

I’m currently putting together the crib that will closely match the style.
