This chest was commissioned by my next door neighbors who recently had a little girl. I think it turned out ok.

Adam, nice job on the dovetails. That looks like oak. Where did you get boards in that width?

I cut all my dovetails by hand. Although I do sometimes use a table saw to help with cutting the tails.
