Dresser

Postby Tomyjoiner » Wed Dec 30, 2015 11:25 pm

This went onto what was her old external wall in a new extension so their was an existing window to frame around in the middle of the dresser unit and 1 to the left. Not the best pictures. I should of put a camera on my crimbo list.
22mm mrmdf, 9mm panels with 12mm read an bead backboard.
Theirs 2 euro oak frames aswell, 1 in the unit and 1 to the left. Theirs still stained glass to go in these when its ready.
Sprayed in F&B white tie 20% sheen. Oak is just clear waxed.

Happy new year.

It's amazing how effective a simple design can look when finished. the wood on the top of the unit and bead mould on the side and back panels look really good. Can I ask what type size of joint you used on the door frames?

Thank you for sharing your construction design. Dominoes seem to be very much in fashion today, any reason for choosing them over biscuit joints ? or is it just either either?
