Project Information

I just finished this sideboard/buffet for our dining room. My wife and I have been working for about five years now to make our house "ours." The dining room is now the first room to be completely overhauled in our style.

The design for this is mine, but of course borrowed from sources - Gregory Paolini and a YouTube video by "countrywoodgirl" being the two most relied on.

Construction is all mortise and tenon except for the plate rail where I used dominos. Finish is medium brown dye, then walnut danish oil, then for the top an additional coating of arm r seal.

This goes with a dining table I built that I will eventually post under a separate project.

Nice work! the wood and tones are perfect for a project like this.
I'm building the same Paolini design from FWW but it has been on hold for a spell while I do other things.

Great piece!
The tones in the oak and sapele really work well together.
Nice Job!

The design is A&C but you made it your own.
Color and finish are so appropriate to the style and wood.

Can't wait to see your dining table.

Very well done, sir. You must have a lot of patience. I'm sure it took many, many hours to build.
