Excellent work friend! Everything about this piece seems very considered and I love the continuous grain across the drawer faces. I cannot wait to see this piece finished.
Well here it is.
Absolutely stunning! What finish did you go with? I love the angles on the top too.
Thanks!
That's Minwax polyurethane, thinned 50/50 with paint thinner and wiped on.
There's this lovely spot of chatoyancy on the top I need to get a detail shot of.
Thank you for noticing that. The biggest trick there is keeping track of which face is which, especially on that little septum between the drawers.
