The new edition of Furniture and Cabinet Making has an article by me on the making of a Nakashima style wall cabinet using some wonderful English Walnut. I'm getting good publicity this month!
The article outlines the making along with a detailed plan and dimensions. Anyone wishing a free copy (of the article) can contact the editor Derek Jones via e mail derekj@thegmcgroup.com and he will gladly forward a PDF.
There were some pretty meaty through dovetails on the corners but everything went together well.
Coming next month is an article on saw guides including a review of my magnetic dovetail guide. The picture below shows the guide being used in an unconventional manor and with a narrow bladed English saw instead of a wider bladed Japanese saw. I'll be intrigued to see what they think, but I'm also slightly worried!!
Lovely cabinet David.
ReplyDeleteI got the pdf of the article from Derek yesterday and I'm looking forward to having a go at it soon.
Hi, That's good he's very helpful. I'd love to see a picture when it's finished. All the best, David.
