I finally finished the dresser I’ve been working on (it’s #2 of 2, built to fit in our closet). No drawer slides, just paste wax, and made pretty much entirely from plywood and glue.

The project was pretty simple, but I went for (fairly) tight tolerances (a few mm clearance), so I was grateful for having made a crosscut sled on this one.

    Sounds like every project I start. “Oh, this will only take 2-3 weeks.” Fast forward 5 months, and it’s ready for finish.

    Great work! The continuous grain is impressive

      Thanks, and lol, that’s maybe even a little faster than this timeline if I’m being honest…but we don’t speak of these things.

      The continuous grain worked out better on #2 than it did on #1.
