Finished Projects - A fathers love for his daughters

[Johnny Fischer]

I made this one and another for my daughters last X-mas.
Both took approx. 1 month to build and approx. $400. each in materials.
What was I on? Anything for daddys little girls.
This 1 is solid natural maple w/ 4 coats of satin polyurethane finish.
Box is constructed of 1/2" maple ply. Blum 1/2" overlay hinges.
Drawers are 3/4" material w/ dovetail construction. Steel draw guides.
Brushed satin nickle knobs.
Crown and base trim are maple as well and was crafted on my shaper.

The other jewelry cabinet was made from solid cherry w/ additional feature such as ring and watch compartments and as soon as I can find what I did w/ the pics I will be happy to post them.

PS, never give an empty wallet or jewelry box as a gift. Its bad luck.
The girls got diamond earrings.

Very nice work. She will treasure these for years.

Beautiful jewelry cabinet Johnny. I hope you can post a couple of pics of the cherry one.

Your daughters should be proud....

I was just curious what the dimensions were. Thanks and nice work.

[Johnny Fischer]

21" w x 37" h x 12" d.
But the box is actually 34 1/2 " h, plus 3" crown making total ht 37".

Very nice, Johnny. When I first saw the pic I thought it was a full size cabinet. You did an excellent job on those drawer fronts especially with the smaller scale.

Sarge..

Thanks for the complement.
I take great pride in my woodworking abilities as I do with everything else in my private life as well as my professional life.

Your work and character is an extention of yourself.
