This was the project I broke away from Big Box lumber with, and my first non-practice hand cut dovetails.

This is a gorgeous table. Congratulations on the dovetails as well. You did a good job with them. You can’t beat the look of hand cut dovetails.

How did you finish the table?

Thanks for the post.

Very, very nice!

I have a question about the drawer fronts. Are they one solid piece, or is the outer portion attached to the dovetailed inner front?

SWEET! Very nicely done; you have more patience in hand cutting dovetails than I do.

The finish is 5 or 6 coats of polyurethane thinned 50:50.

The drawer fronts are 1 solid piece.

Thanks for all the kind words.
