I like the clean simple lines of it. Great job.

Clean lines but this looks great because it is really clean construction. Nice work.

I like it without the knobs too! Also, like the way you captured that particular piece for the panel. Well selected! Looks aged to some degree already.

Now tell me…looks like you’ve been a member for 571 days and this is your 2nd post! How did that happen?

Great Work! I love the clean appearance without the knobs.

Dorje: 571 days… I think I joined about the same time I was starting the last project in the series of classes, and I wanted to wait until I had them done to post them. Well, 2 of them are done; I still have plenty of work to do on the blanket chest, so I figured I should get busy posting projects and getting them out of the shop and into use. Maybe getting these posted will help get the last one done…

It just might! What kind of joinery on the blanket chest?

Another great piece! Good job keeping your wife happy! I think it looks great without the knobs.

Looking forward to more of your posts!

Really nice execution of a very classic-pooking design. Bravo!

Simple lines are often quite elegant. I’ve seen this type before and always liked it. Good job.

Dorje: You can see Glen’s version of the blanket chest we built in this blanket chest article at Popular Woodworking. The main carcass is rabbeted and nailed with cut nails, much like a utilitarian shaker piece would have been. The drawers were my first experience with hand cutting rabbeted half-blind dovetails, so there’s room for improvement there. Now to actually get it completely assembled and get a couple of coats of finish on it.

I love your clock, clean sharp line and a nice look so it could be placed anywere in the house. I have make two clock my self and I wood love to make one like this. I’ll have to file this away in my favorites file. Thanks for sharing your talents with us.

A wonderful piece of woodworking craftsmanship. Turned out beautifully. Thanks for posting it.

-- Better to say nothing and be thought the fool... then to speak and erase all doubt.

Sounds good to me!
