Well now that we've finished the Inspiration 2.0 rocking chair we can focus our attention to finishing our newly designed side tables.
We decided to build the drawers using a reinforced rabbit joint, which means we add 2 screws to the side on the drawers at the joints. We do not frown on using screws in our work, they actually are a great design / style that we love. You also can't deny the strength they add to almost any joint. Pictures show 1.5'' screws plugged with 1/2'' Ebony plugs.
We've now built the drawers, they were built with solid Maple bottoms to match the 3/4'' Maple sides and back, if you have such a beautiful drawer why would you use a plywood bottom, well because it's easy....... well not around here we take the extra time to fine tune the details.
What separates furniture and fine furniture? Details!
Knobs have not been completed..... one of many details!
