L/W,
she did not mind it being late, and was very pleased with the new piece. Thanks very much for taking the time to comment. Have a blessed day, Todd

Tom,
It was a hit, but than again I have an awesome wife.
Thank much, and have a great and blessed day, Todd

Lynn,
I try not to keep track of points, I am usually way behind. But I am glad she loves it.
Have a blessed day, Todd

Hi Steve,
Furniture is my real passion next to tools. With furniture you the chance to express yourself a little more than the average cabinet.
I have also just sprayed all the door and drawer fronts for our new kitchen. I hope to get them all put up within a couple days. Then I will probably be consumed with the new Bakery I am building for my wife.
And then 3 more apartments to build, and then I will be able to get back to more fun stuff.
I hate the way the have 2’s take all the time away from the want 2’s.
Have a blessed day Steve, Todd

Beautiful build.

It makes me think that any guy with a wife that has that much lingerie that she needs a cabinet for it is doing OK.

First off Todd, beautiful piece. I’m sure she (as well as anybody else that sees it) will love it!

Now then, tell us about that little dowel peeking out of the joint in pic #3. Is that part of some sort of locking device?

Hey Joe, I believe you are speaking of the dado for the drawer bottom. That picture is the back of the drawer box and
I was not worried about the unplugged exposed dado grove on the back.
As far as latches go the door is magnetic (which I hate) that I will most likely change to Barrel catches if the magnetic one gets broken. The drawer has a latching drawer slide.

Thanks Joe and have a blessed weekend, Todd

Jim ,
I’m sure she can not fill the cabinet yet, but I’m very willing to help her try!!! LOL

ah-HA! I see now. I didn’t notice the drawer slide and I thought this was the SIDE and not the back of the drawer. It looked like a round dowel in there in that picture.

Very nice piece Todd…. And very well excecuted.

Any issues making the Lock miter that long?

Hi Matt,
thank you much for your compliments. Lock miters are all in the setup, I have learned not to bring the edge to a sharp corner. If you bring it to a sharp edge gravity and the weight of the piece work against you to break that edge off. I leave about a 32nd of an inch square edged.
Have a blessed evening and weekend Matt, Todd

Joe,
I had never thought of what that might appear to be, I new what it was ya know.
Have a great and blessed weekend, Todd

Looks great! Can’t find things like this in any store anymore…

Nothing compares to having a piece of heirloom quality furniture made just for you. Nice job.

Thanks CrazyAce,
Finding a quality piece of furniture in a store has become nonexistent because people are happy to spend a couple hundred dollars at Wallmart on something that might last to its first anniversary.

dshute,
I have always loved building furniture that will be around for a number of generations.

Thanks for the compliments guys and have a blessed day, Todd
