Project Information
First project of fall 2018. Didn't do much woodworking over the summer but now that the temps have dipped below zero, been back at it. I've had a borderline obsession over the last year to make a clean, white box, perhaps the (over) influence of Danish Modern style of furniture. Hopefully this project has got it out of my system.
Carcass is ash; painted with latex paint and sanded back, then a spray coat of shellac followed by 3 coats of brush on water-based poly. Rest is cherry with 4 coats of Minwax "tung oil" and then wipe-on poly.
Overall, I like the look, however, I messed up the mitre splines which takes away from it a bit. Could saw them out but it would then mean re-finishing the carcass which is more effort than I want to put into it.
