I have done videos in the past about how I handle hand cut dovetails for drawers, so for this current project I decided it didn’t make much sense to just highlight the same techniques. Instead, I focused on several challenges I faced with this most recent set of drawers, ranging from some tricky grain to sharpening fatigue. This won’t teach you how to build a drawer, but you might find a few tips you can apply in your shop.

Thanks for presenting your work. I’m about to make some drawers, not as fancy, and this helped me out.

Jim, it just didn’t seem appropriate for me to put all my mdf videos on LumberJocks. So you can find those over at MDFJocks. I just posed “MDF Queen Anne legs” and “Fan carving in MDF” for your enjoyment :)
Have your say...
