Clean lines, attention to detail, keep us posted. Looks great.

Looks like you are off to a good start. Have you decided on a finish for it yet ?

Thanks for posting

Thanks for the great comments. I haven’t decided on a finish yet but I have a couple of weeks to make a decision. We don’t want anything very light and we’re going to want something durable, water and alcohol (we like to have wine from time to time) resistant. I was thinking about a Mission walnut stain.

Looks great. Like the others I can’t wait to see the end result.

That looks like a strong foundation. Looking forward to the finsihed product.

Nice.! Take a look at my TV console from a finishing aspect. I was going to actually fume the QSOak but ended up dying the project. I found the dye was easier to work with, produced zero chemical fumes.
Keep up the good work

This looks like the sideboard my wife is wanting. Do you have plans for this item?
I am somewhat of a beginner to woodworking and have not attempted to build anything other than shop furniture. With that being said I will have to have a set of plans to build something like this.

Can you (or anyone) give me information so I can locate a set of plans like your project?

Thank you.

I came up with the plans kind of on the fly, based on pictures that I’ve seen online. I based the design partially on the Mission Buffet made by the company CF Oakton (http://204.13.155.103/index.php?cPath=1_25_34&osCsid=a663665cb7e88a6d9e7584d779187914) and on other pictures that I’ve seen online. There’s more detailed plans in a book on Mission furniture, but it involved a lot of biscuits and I don’t own a biscuit joiner. The name of the book is:

You can always modify the designs to match your requirements.

Thanks for your quick response and I will continue to look around and I will check your posted link also.

Thank you
