    Default blackwood

    Hey Wongo......

    I thought your garage was full, but the way you go through timber, it looks like you will need plenty more..... I do know where there's stacks of blackwood.......

    As usual, great work!
    I reckon your time spent is paying you around $5.00/hour. I hope you have a good contract with yourself to get some additonal benefits.

    Warm regards for the new year.

    Greg

    The drawers are made from Kauri pine. I like Kauri because it is very easy to work with, it planes nicely.

    I do like making drawers and I always put a lot of effort into it. I need to spend some quality time with my hand tools you know.

    The drawers are not done yet. What am I going to use for the bottoms?

    Dunno, I was going to ask that very same question - copycat.

    It's looking good Wongo.

    Are they machine-cut or hand-cut dovetails on the drawers?
    Cheers.

    Unfortunately you still can't cut small pins on a machine, so I had to cut them by hand.

    Wongo,
    Just happen to have some 15-20mm thick kauri boards at Greenwich......along with the blackwood

    You'll have to wait for the rosewood though....
