Do you know what type of Oak you have there? Whatever it is I wish I had it over here. Hauntingly beautiful, like our Persimmon on steroids.

I like it a lot, the whole thing has an earthy feel to it. I wouldn’t mess with the drawer pulls.

Nice work.

Thanks @therealSteveN. I don’t know specifically what it is. It is one of many logs I dragged home from the side of the road after Hurricane Irma went through my neighborhood. There are a lot of Oak varieties in Florida and I am not so good at identifying one from another once they are logs.

Fantastic. So original and creative. Those drawer fronts are killer, I wouldnt redo them either.

Love it. I followed your link to your web page and was amazed at the detail or your documentation of the work process. How do you like the Veritas dovetail marker.

Kids do like to burn things to a crisp. 8^D

Going “artsy” and eschewing symmetry is a time honored tradition, don’t fight it 8^)
I think with the wood and figure mix you have, those pulls complement it perfectly.

A big thumbs up!

Thanks @James

How do you like the Veritas dovetail marker.?

I’ve had the saddle dovetail marker for years and I like it. It is super easy to mark both the tops and sides of the tails. It could just as easily be used to mark pins if that is your approach. Works well with either a marking knife or a pencil. I also like it because I tend to make larger things than usual and it is sized so that it works fine for some of my chunkier projects.

Thanks @splintergroup I probably wouldn’t fight the “artsy” so much if it did not look like a face. Opening the middle drawer tends to look like you are shoving your fingers up a nose and that is unsettling ;)
