Congrats! Will you put some legs underneath it? I've noticed that flat furniture sometimes end up unbalanced since the floor is often uneven

It's got a small square base now that makes it look like it's floating.

Thanks, I got put on the spot first lesson so I found a bunch of details I liked and smoothed them together.

Queensland maple for the body and jarra for the supports.

Dovetails we're in the drawer box, I thought I could upload two photos but only one came through. Still learning how this is different to Reddit.

Nice work! Love the design.

That’s pretty dang slick!

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Very cool and original, well done!

[-] CkrnkFrnchMn@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

A tad too deep for me but I do like the design...nice.

[-] whelmer@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Very cool, I've not seen anything like it before. I love maple, I find it to be at least as beautiful as the various endangered tropical woods.

[-] spauldo@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Looks rather modern (as in 1950s-1960s style). That's my favorite style. Now I miss my old furniture :)

Very nice work!
