Spalted and white stripe maple jewelry boxAll from one piece of wood with some bloodwood accents. This is my first with a drawer. The hardest part about this box were the Soss barrel hinges. One was off by what I swear is 1mm and the lid would bind. I put in and forcefully ripped out two sets of hinges. Then I elongated one hole just a smidge and got it to work with a third set. I'm glad I got a bag of 24 for $50 instead of $7 each at a store.

Arts And Crafts Bathroom Vanity Conversion

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Arts And Crafts Bathroom Vanity Conversion Here's what the cabinets looked like before I converted them to the A & C style.I used the wood for the rails and stiles from the original kitchen cabinet doors I replaced in the A &C kitchen cabinets project I completed a while ago. With lumber prices so high it paid to recycle them.They also matched the face frame wood.
Sanding the face frames with an orbital sander.

Installing the side panels.I used the overlay draw fronts for the new inset draw fronts.
Sawing the rear top of the drawers at a 45 angle so they would fit the slides which were now set back behind the frame.
Installing the slides with a leveling jig I made.Staining the face frame.This is the third bathroom I've done and have one more to go. My knees and back will be glad when it's finished.Thanks for visiting.
