Mid-century style sideboard
This is the first "proper" project I've done in quite a while. It's the first of a matching pair to replace some temporary mdf shelves that I made when we moved in to the house more than 9 years ago
The carcass and leg assembly are solid Sapele, with the doors made from veneered 12mm ply (to avoid movement issues). It was a very enjoyable project, and I'm looking forward to getting stuck into the next one (with the benefit of everything I've learned doing this one. Pretty pleased with the result

I really like the detail of the finger “pulls”. Are you able to show us some close up shots?
A very impressive build all together from my perspective.

very impressive but then your a kiwi (also) I would expect no less than quality.
I would love to grow my own food, but I can not find bacon seeds

The flush pulls were surprisingly simple to do - mainly done using router and template guide for the inner bit, then router table for the outer rounding and rebates:

The sides and bottom of the pull are only around 2mm thick, so it's pretty delicate by itself.
Then it was a simple matter of routing out a recess in the door using a straight bit and another template, then gluing it in. The recess is 11.5mm deep in 13.5mm material to maximise the depth of the pull.
