After reading a few of James Krenov's books, I had to try making a cabinet on a stand. By far, this is the most complicated piece I have made. The project had a lot of firsts for me - dovetailed drawers, veneer, hand made pulls, and knife hinges to name a few. I learned a lot making it. There are some mistakes, but again I learned from them.
The case and stand are solid african mahogany, the pulls are walnut, the interior drawer fronts are curly maple. The doors and back panels are ambrosia maple veneer. I started with rough cut lumber.

This is my first serious (for me) piece of wood working, so comments are welcome.
