Thread: WIP Queen Anne Dressing Table

Great work! Read through the whole thread resisting the urge to skip to the end in search of finished pics. Looking forward to the final reveal

Made some more progress and starting to see the end but still more work. Finished the top and front, now working on the two sides before I start on the legs. Top and front buffed with EEE.enjoy

What's the sticker on the back timber? Maker's Mark or Bunnies price sticker?

Beeeeooootifull

Bunnies price sticker for the pine back, decided maple is just too good to waste on what you won't see.

That's really brought the figure out!

Superbunny,

Nice work. You should take some time out to check antique furniture before you try and copy some. You will soon find they all use secondary timber, usually a pine, for all the bits you don't see. I commend you choice of pine. I also hope you are pleased with your progress with this piece.

Cheers

What a stunning top - a great harmony of sensational raw material and careful, considered finishing. Congratulations.

Stunning figure- all brought out by your superb polishing!!!

Fantastic WIP posting Superbunny, congratulations on superb workmanship and patience in creating your masterpiece

Dunno how I middes this thread for so long, but that finish is unbelievable

I've enjoyed reading through the whole thread, and seeing all of the great workmanship. Very impressed

Cheers,
Dave

Well guys, it's about finished now and I know it has taken a long time but Sh_t happens. I just for the life of me could not get the two sides right with the shellac and have sanded them back twice. Then I got the Polisher's Handbook out and read it again then read it again then re-re-read it again then did what it told me to do in the first place. A steep learning curve I know but a lesson I will not forget. Also SWMBO has been in and out of hospital but we won't use that as a reason for little progress. Anyhow it will be finished very soon now. Enjoy.
