    Very nice. I've never worked with that wood. Just for curiosity how much does it weigh?

    Thanks Lee. Sapele is a little heavier than walnut, and a little lighter than white oak. This piece is not all solid wood (I usually only make solid wood furniture). The door and side panels are veneered ˝ inch MDF. The remaining panels are all ˝ sapele plywood with the core being some light soft woods (pine and something else it appears). I am not sure how much this piece weighs overall, but it is heavy.
