About The Site

Hi Folks, After 36 years in the IT industry, I have retired (almost) and taken up the craft of making quality furniture and have set up this site to chronicle and share my experiences.

Cherry Wardrobe

I have been working on this project for several weeks … a wardrobe made of solid cherry, with cedar inserts for the back and bottoms of shelves and drawers.  This project has presented many challenges since I work alone and it is simply very big (78″ high).   The top is joined to the sides with dovetails, and the shelves and divider are joined using 1/4″ dado joints.  The cedar back is semi-floating, glued and screwed on the side edges only so that any expansion will be toward the centre which has a 1/4 inch of play.

 I am now working on the drawers and doors, soon to be installed.

Will post more soon.
