Hi Everyone,

I have posted my low boy that I just finished up. I made it 3/4 scale, and made it almost exclusively with handtools. I only used a bandsaw to do the initial outline of the cabriole legs. I wanted to prove to myself I could do it. There are some things next time I will do different such as the straight legs in the back. I didn’t cabrioles in the rear because I ran out of 4×4 stock. The front legs were made from a single post that I actually scrounged from an old palatte. I tried to compy as closely as I could a low boy shown in an Albert Sacks ad in an old Magazine Antiques issue. I haven’t added the finials below the drawers yet.

Looks great. I’d agree that the cabriole legs in the back would be the icing on the very lovely cake.

One other thing I forgot to mention. I made the closet doors beside the low boy in sassafras. If you’ve never worked with sassafras you’re in for a treat. Your shop will smell wonderful.
