This has been a long project and a very interesting one. It is somehow a very important commission work, because it is our daughter’s very first desk!
Express Your S(h)elf
Shelves are one of the simplest furniture designs, but that doesn’t mean they have to be dull!
Raised panel cabinet doors.

The design is inspired by our workbench, so it will be assembled with mortise and tenons, but this time the tenons will be cut on the table saw. It took about an hour to make the tenons this way (it took me a couple of days to make those of the workbench by hand) and they were very consistent in size.
