Hell I get up at 4:30 and I have not had a job in 4 yrs nor an alarm in 30 yrs. I guess bad habits are hard to break.... :rotflmao3::rotflmao3:

Down to 7 drawers left. Started gluing them together. Darn it is going to be a heck of stack a drawers. At this point I am thinking way too many drawers in the plan but..... when I get putting the faces on I will not regret all the chips I am making now. Hard maple makes very nice drawers!!! Pictures tomorrow. Any luck and tomorrow I will be done with the drawer carcass's. Off to the fun stuff- faces- doors-insets and lids.

:dash2::dash2::dash2: Thank goodness- all drawers dovetails- bottoms made -groove for bottom- destroyed one 1/4" bit and 4 of the 5 are sanded on inside and glued. Thank goodness I have had it with making drawers---well at least till the next time. Still have to sand outside, roundover the edges and make dado for slide but that will be easy and quick.
Now for the fun stuff- drawer fronts- the special wood. Let's have some fun 4 of the 5 choices came from WB sellers. I think only 4 will be used-the walnut will be walnut- I think. If you have a very good memory you will remember most of these pieces. The spalted maple came from my pile so I have used my guess. :rotflmao3::rotflmao3::rotflmao3: Now it is your turn. I think 3 pieces should be easy to decide what kind of wood- the 4th -well it might not be- hell I would have no clue if I did not know. PS they all have a fresh coat of BLO.

Spalted Maple?? what kind a guess was that I told you that one!!!! :wacko1::dash2: Curly red wood- Yes- Dean Jordan and it is almost holygraphic- floated around in the ocean for years. Hickory-NAH
3 left to guess middle one in first pic should be easy.

Most everyone here has seen the first piece-but I do not think anyone will guess it.

The middle one should be easy. the first probably no way does anyone get close- even the person that sent it to me probably could not guess. The last some one should know. A lot of us got this wood. I might be the only one that resawed and dried boards. Not many of us flatheads.........

duckwood:dunno: ---what ever they are there very purty

Ah Ha Jeff you are the winner on the cherry burl- not only just cherry burl- you recognized the cherry burl you sold me a while ago-pretty stuff-thanks.
Old Zirk?? Nope

#1 looks like Cottonwood or Longan. #3 looks like olive?

 

[DKMD]

First looks like camphor... Looks just like that countertop that Rob posted a while back. The third one is a bit trickier for me, but the olive seems like a good guess.

David no on the first but you are a winner on the olive- Dean jordans olive dried slowly for almost a year. Sure sands out smooth. I am not sure but I think this goes in the persimmon box and Kathie might have confiscated my whole olive stash...........:dash2::dash2::dash2:
As far as the first -you are not even close. hell I know what it is and have a hard time believing it is what it is.
