Nothing like curves on a ...

Very Nice.

I really like your design. Subtle, but different enough to stand out from the crowd. Nice work!

Very nice. What finish do you plan for this project?

take care and work safe.

...she will love it!

Your wife will love it! I know I do. This piece is stunningly beautiful. I love the graceful curves and the panels all around. I also love the top piece and the doweled joinery. Well done and great design. Favorited.

Thanks for all the comments. Oldskoolmodder – I plan to go with a natural finish to take advantage of the light tones of maple, along with Miniwax Wipe-on Poly for protection. I am just a simple man. :)

I like it. That’s the first thing I said out loud when I saw this piece. Is the bottom face frame rail arched as well? It looks like it is and I noticed the top rail of the door is arched too. I think if the bottom rail of the door were arched too it would really ground the theme.

It a beautiful work and I’d like to build one like it. Thanks for posting.

GMoney – yes, the bottom face has the same curve contour as the door frame. If you decide to make something similar, I would consider moving the bottom face piece down just a little further so that it is a little more visible. I am certainly not complaining. Project turned out great. I just always re-evaluate how I would do it differently. I plan to do some similar projects in the future, once I find some wood. :) I have a few other projects I need to finish up first. Honey-do list …

Nice cabinet, Tim.

Glad this came around again. It’s a fine cabinet, and the curves on the sides give it character. Is it finished yet?

Yes – it is complete. Turned out better than expected. I used a natural finish, so the finished project looks almost identical to the posted pictures, minus the shop floor and sawdust. :)
