Petersburg, Mi - Mortise and Tenon joinery
I've begun to construct the base cabinet face frame, which will lead me into the doors for the cabinets. The face frame will be assembled in the shop, and I am using mortise and tenon joinery. This is one of the strongest joints made.
I've set up my mortiser on the press, and made the mortises from the layout I took from the jobsite. I cut the tenons on the bandsaw, and have assembled the frame. I'll leave the glue dry for a day before I take it to the jobsite to test fit it.
Petersburg, Mi - Installing the Arched Valences
>> Tuesday, July 07, 2009
Here are the newest pics of the arched valences going in!
With the finish done on the valences, I've installed each one in it's respective location. It really is starting to take shape now. With the valences in, I can put in the surrounding flat and fluted trim also, and this will finish it out. It's really becoming a beautiful piece now, and I just love this cherry!
Petersburg, MI - continuing on with the bookcase
>> Monday, June 29, 2009
Here are some new pictures of the project. I've finished out the bookcase rough-in, and I'll be moving on to the arched valences next, and then the fluted trim!
This week I'll be doing more staining in the shop, since I have some valence measurements now!
Also, the tile guy was in this week and finished the tile around and below the fireplace.
