W273- Oval Jewelry Cabinet with Veneer Mosaic
Dec 06, 2018
This jewelry cabinet has a vacuum-pressed oval carcase that sits on hand-shaped Ruhlmann-style legs. But it’s the veneer mosaic that grabs attention. Marcin created the pattern using illustration software and then used a ScanNCut automated hobby cutting machine to cut the 2,000-plus individual pieces. “It took months of experimentation to figure out how to get the machine to cut veneer without tearing it into shreds.”

Ridgid R4331 Planer
Priced nearly $300 less than the DeWalt 735X, the Ridgid R4331 is an excellent value. Its three-knife cutterhead left wonderfully clean surfaces on plainsawn white oak and white pine. It did not perform nearly as well on curly maple as the 735X.
