Well...Dewey called it, my first paid project is here. It's going to be an entertainment center for my sister and brother-in-law. Nothing too big, around 6feet long and 7ft tall.
They are into the pine rustic furniture that I believe most is waxed w/ a colored wax.
Getting pine for the shelves and doors isn't an issue for me but I'm wondering about the sides, back and other "large" areas that I would normally probably build with laminated plywood. Is there a type of laminated plywood that would match the pine after the wax is on?
I could edge glue pieces after I joint / plane them, just not sure if that's the best route to go and how to keep them flat?
Thanks!
