I will be working on this armoire but it has a curved top so I will be making the form in which I’ll put thin strips of walnut glued in the shape of this curve. I will be posting progress photos of the jig that I will be making to accomplish this be patient and stay tuned.

Pretty good progress today as Ian sprayed the nightstands and we attach the rope to the respective doors. Ian stained the legs yesterday and assembled the nightstands. My job was to cut and select Burls that were proportional to the size of the drawers on the dressers.
