W276- Chest of Drawers With a Twist
Jun 04, 2019
This chest of drawers was Herman’s student project at the Vermont Woodworking School. It was his first time trying compound-angle dovetails for a drawer. “I wasn’t sure how they would run until the dovetails were all cut and glued together. Thankfully everything turned out well,” he said. “There were lots of processes in this piece that didn’t have much room for error, but the challenges made it all the more satisfying when it was finally done.”
