Hand Made Modern Take 3
O.k. so my last few blogs have been about other peoples handy work, hand tools and the like and Im happy to say that Im back in the wood shop working again on my own projects.These last few weeks have been busy with life outside of the wood shop so itll be great to make some shavings again. Im working on a new piece that follows in the realm of the hand made modern line Id been designing over the past year. The first was the walnut entertainment cabinet and the second the walnut and aluminum sideboard. This new piece is also made from solid walnut with an interesting take on some through dovetails Ive been calling a finger tail split... Its basically a technique where I cut wide through dovetails as per normal procedure and then split each one again with a finger joint. It makes for a unique look but can be a little tricky to execute. The photo shows the main carcass dry fit together with the door panel glued up in the foreground. The upper main carcass is a basic box with a fitted interior secretary incorporating drawers and shelves. The door panel will have bread board face and the cabinet will have a rabbeted back dust panel. The leg frame will really be the component that transforms this piece from a simple dovetailed box and draw it into a more, Mid-Century Modern vein. (at least thats the plan on paper) Funny how things can change when you start to get into the grain.
Ill be posting some more details as I go so stay tuned...
Work really does make life sweet!
