I would appreciate a little coaching – should I add the second part of this build to the original thread or create a new thread? My apologies – I'm sure there must some convention, but I'm not very bright. All advice and suggestions are much appreciated!
with the disclaimer above, here is the second part of this build:
Here are the completed cornice moldings.

An example of one of the classic mistakes I make routinely – didn’t make enough molding !!! As you can see, last piece is a couple inches short. That means a redo of the whole molding process for those extra couple missing inches – classic example of poor planning biting you in the butt and creating extra work.

Here’s the cornice molding installed. Couple mistakes here; when laying out dimensions for the chest top, I should’ve considered the width that would result in the apex of the front/side edges being in an alignment with the 45° angle with the carcass. Regrettably that didn’t happen. You might might not be able to see in the pics but if I would have moved the top back by an inch or so the corners would’ve aligned– I hate when that happens!

Another mistake; the beaded edge of the cornice molding is almost parallel with the top of the chest so it’s not really visible – that sucks because it was an effort to create that part of the molding.

Here are a couple perspective views the carcass to date.

Here is final, cleanup planing of the drawer components. This plane is one of my favorites .This shop built, Jack razee style plane (thank you Derek Cohen for the tutorial!) is one of my favorite finishers – the shavings shoots straight up, almost hitting me in the face. Not sure why that happens, but I think it’s cool.

Checking the fit of the drawer fronts in the carcass so that reveals, alignment of edges are consistent.

Geometry raises its ugly head ! Laying out the curve for the top row of drawers. Hopefully getting a fair curve with spoke shave and rasps/files.
