Little Min. Chest I made for my wife for Christmas
« on: January 23, 2009, 04:02:06 PM »

This little chest is made of Walnut and hand dovetailed. The dawers are dovetailed also. The size is 19" long-10" high-9" wide. I copied it from one made in 1776. She liked it alot. Carl L.

Looks like some big bucks sitting there in hand tools!  That is beautiful work on that chest Carl, and I really enjoyed the flow of the grain.
