This is the tool cabinet I built as the second project of the 9 month course. All of the students built cabinets of the same design. You can't really see it in the picture, but the cabinet is pretty complex--it was designed to teach us a lot and boy did it. The doors are coopered which meanse the top, bottom and shelves in each door are curved. The main cabinet is put together with finger joints and the middle shelf in the doors and cabinet and through mortised. Another thing that amazed me was the amount of wood it took to complete it.
This other shot is of tools sitting on my bench--I like stuff like that so here it is. The bench room has a lot of windows and the day light coming in is great--it makes working in the bench room a real joy as well as making pictures look better. And, it will be nice to have that much sunlight during the short days of winter. It's already getting dark here at 4:30.
