The Bow Front Chest was two years in the making, one year for my wife to decide what she wanted in the foyer, and another year to build on the weekends.  The drawer fronts were much eaiser to build than anticipated, used a vacum press that skateboarders used. The conforming top was a challange to make the dovetails and the amount of wood required to remove from the socket to make the half blind pins.


Design or Plan used: My own design
