I thought I'd share a little project I just completed. It's a Stickley Wall Cabinet in lacewood. The original design appears in the book," Making Authentic Craftsman Furniture", on pages 42 & 43.
The construction for the main carcass is all stopped dados. The back is shipplapped to allow for expansion/contraction.
All of the dado'd joints are end grain to face grain and were epoxied and screwed together with wenge plugs covering the screwheads.
The hardware is 2 mock strap hinges, set against two mortisless hinges. The cabinet handle/latch is an eBay purchase.
Finish is Watco's Danish Oil.
First pic is the drawing in the book. Starting point, so to say. You can see my chicken scratching to resize the cabinet.

I decided to take two pic's. One inside on the bench , and one outside. The grain and color of the wood are hard to get a pic of. I tried the best I could with the cheap camers I have. The Pic inside has a lot of shadow casting.
