Nice work Alex.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

Nice indeed.
I like the pale colour of the drawers.

I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

I like most of it, but the split drawer front, especially the middle drawer really annoys me. Sorry to say so.

Yes, I would prefer either wider, single boards for the deep drawer fronts, or four or five unjointed drawer fronts. They could be veneered!

Thanks gents. Re the drawer fronts, I was in two minds whether to use a veneer, or show the nice figure in the bare boards. In the end, I went for the bare boards, and the client likes them, but still not sure if I'd go that way again. Some really speccy veneer would have gone well.
