    Nice going on the dresser.

    After seeing the contrast between the timbers after the finish has been applied I am not sure if the draws distract from the top. Can I please request that you take another photo showing more of the side?

    Away for the weekend. Will try to remember to post another pic next week, but I can tell you the sides are the same timber as the drawers. Only the top is camphor laurel.

    I have made several pieces using laminated camphor laurel. I like camphor laurel, and especially the book-matched laminates, but when the entire cabinet is camphor it can look a bit "busy".

    Thanks,Tony.

    I'll post some more pics when I get the knobs and mirror on, but that won't be soon as I am in the Middle East for the next 12-13 days ... making some loot to support my woodworking habit.
