Woodworker: David Hurwitz

Hurwitz’s wine cabinet has a sinuous exterior that belies the square gridwork inside. The cabinet stands 16 in. deep by 48 in. wide by 35 in. tall and is made of solid cherry and cherry-veneered bending plywood. The waves in the cabinet front were carved using a combination of hand tools and an angle grinder. To avoid interrupting the waves, Hurwitz carved a small notch behind the door just below the top to serve as the pull. The carcase and legs are finished with Watco Danish Oil, and the finish on the top is J.E. Moser’s water-based polyurethane.
