Current work

[Ross Canant]

This is a quilt chest inspired by Ernie Conover's chest in the Treasure Chest book. It is made of soft maple and finished with Jeff Jewitt's antique maple recipe. The work was a combination of power and hand tool. All surfaces were hand planed. Joinery was cut with an old Powermatic 10 mortiser and tablesaw with tenon jig. Fitting was done by hand.
