Project Information
This is the latest big project - an A&C bookcase that I build from a plan in FWW magazine. It's quartersawn white oak with purpleheart-pegged through tenons. 50" H X 31" W X 12" D. All the curved pieces were cut with a jigsaw and cleaned up with a spokeshave - no band saw here! I used a router with template to bore the through mortises. Just bought 2 new LN mortising chisels for the next project. The rear panel is QSWO 1/4" plywood. The finish was a water-based dye mixture followed by a glaze of Bartley gel stains, and Waterlox. Now my son will have a place for all his stuff, forever.
